Over Horse Grimace Scale

Leren om pijn te scoren in uw paard door het observeren van de gezichtsuitdrukkingen.

The Horse Grimace Scale HGS (App), was developed by AWIN WP4 to teach users to recognize, assess and manage painful conditions in horses using facial expressions. Surgical and other pain are quite commonly experienced by horses but, for appropriate pain relief it is crucial that veterinarians, farmers, horse owners, and riders are able to recognize pain in a reliable way.

The user of the HGS App will have full access to

1) An introductory video that defines pain and the relevance of monitoring and measuring pain in animals;

2) A training session to be able to score pain in horses and

3) A scoring session where users are able to score pain in their own horses and keep track of their Grimace Scales in the smartphone database.

The HGS App is available for devices that use the Android operating system.

**READ ME PLEASE**
We had several people asking how to skip the video. The back button of Android CellPhones already do the skipping. Try hitting the back button!

3 different Ilustrations help the user to identify the condition of each of the 6 areas on the Score and Training.
The Intro video will only play the very first time the user opens the app.
At the Scoring screen, the user will no longer have to go through the definition of any of the 3 choices of Score.
Added I dont know button.
