Answer to PD Care is an innovative application developed by Brain Innovations s.r.l., designed to provide an integrated set of tools for managing and monitoring overall health and prescribed therapy for patients with Parkinson's disease. The app serves as a practical and technological support for patients, caregivers, and physicians, fostering more effective and personalized management of the condition.
Available for both smartphones and Wear OS, Answer to PD Care ensures continuous monitoring and therapy adherence directly from the patient's wrist. The Wear OS version is specifically designed for patients, allowing them to input diary entries, receive medication reminders, and confirm drug intake seamlessly.
The application is organized into six main sections, covering various aspects of daily life and patient treatment, ensuring comprehensive and continuous monitoring:
Motor Diary
Allows users to record and monitor motor symptoms, including tremors, dyskinesias, and other changes in the patient's physical condition, providing a clear overview of disease progression.
Medication Diary
Supports the management of medication routines. Patients can input or view medications prescribed by their doctor, confirm intake, and update the database with the time and details of the medication taken. Therapy can be modified directly by the doctor or the patient. Additionally, a notification system on both smartphones and Wear OS smartwatches reminds patients of medication times. If the patient fails to confirm intake within a specified time frame, a warning message is sent to the caregiver, ensuring greater safety and adherence to prescribed therapy.
Meal Diary
Helps monitor and record the patient's eating habits (in terms of meal timing), providing useful insights to manage the relationship between diet and drug treatment, thereby optimizing therapy effects.
Sleep Diary
Enables the recording of sleep times and duration.
Audio Recording
Provides a tool for recording the patient's voice, which is helpful for monitoring potential changes in vocal quality, often affected by disease progression.
Video Recording
Allows short video recordings to document motor symptoms or other physical conditions, offering doctors valuable visual information for a more in-depth assessment.
Thanks to these features, Answer to PD Care promotes continuous symptom monitoring and effective communication between patients, caregivers, and physicians. Each section is designed to be intuitive and easily accessible, ensuring that collected data can be securely and promptly shared with all parties involved in disease management.
Answer to PD Care is an advanced digital support tool aimed at improving the quality of life for individuals with Parkinson's, fostering proactive and personalized disease management while promoting enhanced collaboration among patients, doctors, and caregivers.
