Interventions
During the follow-up period, participants will have access to the application and will be able to explore the different modules. At fixed time points, the application will allow them to fill in questionnaires about the application's usability and patient satisfaction. App user data will track how long and how often patients visit the application and which aspects are mostly used. In addition, at different time points during the study, patients will be asked to complete clinical questionnaires regarding e.g. patients' knowledge and self-care abilities. The results of these questionnaires can be used in a more clinical way as they will be accessible to doctors and nurses in the healthcare provider dashboard and can support targeted patient follow-up and guidance
