    El uso de dispositivos móviles inteligentes y aplicaciones para la evaluación y tratamiento de los pacientes con dolor crónico se está extendiendo. Las importantes ventajas de estas alternativas tecnológicas contribuyen a este proceso, entre ellas facilitar el acceso a los tratamientos, incluso desde lugares remotos y con difícil acceso a los recursos sanitarios, ayudar a mejorar los procedimientos clínicos así como a reducir los costes. En este trabajo presentamos Painometer v2(r), una aplicación móvil validada científicamente y gratuita, que sirve para medir y registrar la intensidad del dolor a lo largo del tiempo; la única aplicación sobre dolor disponible en español con un sello de calidad. Se describen las características de esta aplicación, las alternativas de uso que brinda y los resultados obtenidos hasta la fecha tanto en las pruebas de usabilidad y accesibilidad como respecto de sus propiedades psicométricas. Finalmente, se valora el estado de desarrollo de la aplicación y se plantean algunas líneas de investigación futuras.

    The use of smart mobile devices and apps for the evaluation and treatment of patients with chronic pain is spreading. The important advantages of these technological gadgets contribute to this process, including: facilitating access to treatments, even from remote places and with difficult access to health resources, helping to improve clinical procedures as well as reducing costs. In this work, we introduce Painometer v2(r), a free and scientifically validated mobile application that is used to measure and record the intensity of pain over time; the only pain-related application available in Spanish with a quality seal. This paper describes the characteristics of the application, the ways in which it can be used, the results obtained to date in usability and accessibility tests, and its psychometric properties. Finally, the development status of the application is appraised and some future lines of research are suggested.
