MeddApp

MeddApp - Your health at your fingertips. The most important information you have is your health information for you and any doctor or healthcare professional to use for your care. It has to be complete and ordered in a way that makes sense and confidential. MeddApp is an app that brings you and healthcare professionals together to easily view and record all information in a way that can be used in a consultation, wherever you are in the world. MeddApp is a collection of 3 apps: Meddrecord – a personal medical record and you can order a Meddcard MeddApp - HIMS – for healthcare professionals to manage their daily workload MeddApp - PACS – the picture archiving and communication system to view all x-rays and scans MeddApp downloads to your mobile to create a Meddrecord, a Medical Record that you control. You can: Add symptoms and record when they started and if they have stopped Take pictures to add to symptoms e.g. add a mole and take a picture of that mole Add your conditions and diagnoses such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol diabetes Ask for a specialist opinion and book an appointment with a doctor to view your symptoms Record allergies you may have Record your social history and care needs Log your diet requirements Record your current and past medications Record and track your blood pressure readings Record your blood sugar values Record your cholesterol and lipid profile Record your liver function tests Record your family history Record your vaccinations given and due View referrals from your GP to specialist and view the outcome when ready Upload and view scanned reports of your paper medical histories The information recorded about you is important to your health and includes: Your date of birth to check how old you are, identify you, and check when you record your symptoms starting you don’t start them before you were born for example!! How old you are when a symptom starts can change a diagnosis – a young person only very rarely gets heart pain in the chest but an older person who smokes is more likely Gender – obviously some conditions affect only females or males and so MeddApp needs to know this Meddcard – when you have a Meddrecord you can also order a MeddCard that has a unique code for you to allow your Meddrecord to be quickly searched by a healthcare professional looking after you MeddApp - HIMS has a desktop and mobile version and allows a healthcare professional (doctor, nurse, or professional allied to medicine) to: Search for a patient’s Meddrecord See their daily schedule and manage clinics Make and view referrals and set up contracts to link general practices to specialists for sending referrals View inpatients, they are looking after and to record information on ward rounds Request laboratory and x-ray investigations Manage patient accounts Meddapp is constantly updated and current versions will allow you to view educational videos, have real-time video consultations, have reminders to take medications and order prescriptions
