Aphasia, an alteration in the ability to use language, is a common consequence of stroke. Aphasia is treated by multidisciplinary teams including speech and language therapists. However, due to high workload and scarce resources, patients may not get enough therapy time. This article proposes MyAphasia, an application to help speech and language therapists in the treatment of aphasia in the acute phase, by assigning activities for the patient to perform independently. The application was evaluated by 11 speech and language therapists for 2 days. The results are promising: therapists found MyAphasia easy to use and helpful, potentially saving time and resources.
