Designing an Electronic Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale
Welcome to the eCOWS group. We look to venture away from the current subjective assessment for opiate withdrawal and design an iOS app that provides a more objective assessment tool for clinical use.

Why opiate addiction |
The eCOWS group are Biological Systems Engineering students looking to apply what we have learned to develop a successful alternative interface for those going through opiate withdrawal.

Opiate addiction has become a rising problem in the US, and can be considered an epidemic. Over 100 people die every day from an opioid overdose. The eCOWS group hopes to do our part in fighting this crisis through engineering design.
