## What is Patient Advocate Pro?

Patient Advocate Pro is an offline clinical decision-support tool for licensed healthcare professionals. The clinician enters the patient's chronic conditions, vital signs, and review of systems across the eight body systems; the app produces a weighted differential to consider and the suggested work-up — with the contributing findings, match strength, confirmatory criteria, and cited sources shown for independent review, and red-flag emergencies surfaced up top.

THE EVALUATION FLOW
- Step 1 — History & comorbidities: 41 chronic conditions (AFib, CHF, COPD, diabetes, CKD, cancer, clotting disorders, pregnancy, anticoagulant use, and more).
- Step 2 — Vital signs: temperature, pulse, blood pressure, breathing rate, oxygen, blood sugar; out-of-range values are flagged and scored.
- Step 3 — Review of systems: HEENT, Neurological, Cardiac, Respiratory, Abdominal, Genital/Urinary, Musculo-skeletal, and Skin — each with a findings checklist, a 0–10 pain scale, and a free-text pain location.
- Summary — a ranked differential with a transparent "match strength," the contributing findings for each, a severity chip, a tier label (common / less common / rare), and the suggested work-up. Red-flag findings or vitals raise an emergency banner.

CONTENT CATALOG
- 335 conditions across the 8 systems — common, uncommon, and rare "can't-miss" emergencies — each with plain-language text, testing, severity, a tier, confirmatory criteria, and cited sources.
- 388 findings and 41 chronic illnesses.
- Rare conditions are tiered below common ones at comparable scores so results stay useful; true emergencies are surfaced separately via the red-flag banner regardless of rank.

WHAT WOULD CONFIRM THIS
Every condition carries the specific findings that would support or confirm it — the labs, imaging, and characteristic examination that move a possibility toward a diagnosis, with the thresholds stated. Open any condition to see the full set; the top criteria appear inline in the results.

EVERY CONDITION IS CITED
Each entry names at least two published sources, drawn from more than 480 distinct guidelines, society statements, and standard references. Tap any citation to look it up on PubMed and read the source directly, rather than taking the app's word for it. American guidance is paired with its international counterpart where both exist.

TRANSPARENT BY DESIGN
Results are ordered by how well the entered findings match — not by likelihood or seriousness — and every condition shows the findings that contributed to it, its match strength, its confirmatory criteria, and its references, so the clinician can review the basis and apply independent judgment.

IMPORTANT
Patient Advocate Pro is decision-support only. It does NOT diagnose, prescribe, or replace clinical judgment, examination, or professional care. It cannot examine the patient, run tests, or know the full history. The treating clinician's judgment governs in all cases. Do not rely on it in an emergency — activate emergency care immediately.

PRIVACY
Fully offline. No accounts, no tracking, no network requests, no patient data leaves the device. Entered information is used only to compute the on-device result.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-08-25

This release expands the condition library, deepens the sourcing behind every entry, and rewrites the legal and contact sections.

- 21 new conditions across all eight body systems — obstructive sleep apnea, pulmonary hypertension, ALS, narcolepsy, atrial flutter, POTS, cirrhosis, esophageal and gastric cancer, cataract, macular degeneration, open-angle glaucoma, tinnitus, chronic and acute kidney injury, PCOS, osteoporosis, lumbar spinal stenosis, lupus, actinic keratosis, and venous leg ulcer. The library now covers 335 conditions and 388 findings.

- Every condition now cites at least two published sources. Twenty-one entries previously carried a single reference; each has been paired with its international counterpart guideline — ACC/AHA with ESC across the cardiac entries, CDC STI guidance with WHO, AUA with EAU.

- Clinical content refreshed to current guidance: 2024 McDonald criteria for multiple sclerosis, 2025 AHA/ACC hypertension, GINA and GOLD 2026, ADA 2026. Two conditions gained explicit escalation guidance where they previously had none.

- Each new condition is wired into the scoring engine with its own findings, so it can surface in an evaluation rather than sitting inert in the catalog.

- About & safety rewritten: terms of use, eligibility, assumption of risk, no professional relationship, no warranties, limitation of liability, waiver and release, indemnification, and an expanded non-affiliation and trademark statement naming the guideline publishers the app cites.

- Added a Contact section with support and legal-notice addresses, and a route to report a suspected error in any clinical entry.
