App relaunch
Long-standing collaboration with AO Foundation
The AO Trauma Orthogeriatrics App is an educational tool for surgeons and healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of patients with fragility fractures in the elderly. The app provides comprehensive educational content on osteoporosis, delirium, anticoagulation, perioperative pain management and fall prevention. It is primarily aimed at surgeons and their trainees, but is also suitable for other doctors and healthcare professionals. The app is available for both iOS and Android and supports the AO Foundation in its efforts to disseminate knowledge in specialties such as trauma, spine and craniomaxillofacial surgery.
Since 2013, Neofonie Mobile has been the reliable partner for the development and further development of this app. Over the years, continuous improvements and updates have been made to adapt the app to modern requirements and user needs.
Process
Design and prototyping
The app interface was revised in an intensive design and prototyping process from July to August 2024. A new, user-friendly design was developed in close consultation with the AO Foundation and experts in orthogeriatric traumatology. The aim was to simplify accessibility to the learning content and optimize user-friendliness on smartphones and tablets.
