SIMpLE: A Mobile Cloud-Based System for Health Monitoring of People with ALS

Adopting telemonitoring services during the pandemic for people affected by chronic disease is fundamental to ensure access to health care services avoiding the risk of COVID-19 infection. Among chronic diseases, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressi...
