If your blood pressure is too high, that's a problem. Over time it can damage the heart and internal organs. Medication helps but how well? To find out, blood pressure has to be monitored continuously.
The free app "BloodPressureDB" by Horst Klier can help. It's available for iPhone as well as for Android devices. The current systolic and diastolic blood pressure values are recorded in the app along with the pulse. The app automatically adds a date and time stamp to each entry.
A color line chart displays the data clearly over any selectable period for example, to review for the doctor who wants to take a close look at blood pressure trends at the next appointment.
If the user signs up in the system with their e-mail address, the data are managed centrally and can be accessed and edited on the website, in the iOS app or on the Android device as desired. The user is not tied to a single device and can, if needed, show the stored data to the doctor in the practice PC's web browser if the iPhone isn't with them. The evaluation can also be saved as a PDF and added to the patient's file.
"BloodPressureDB": New version with additional vital signs
A new version of "BloodPressureDB" is now available in the App Store. This version includes the following new features:
- Additional vital signs: The app now also records the user's weight, blood sugar level, body temperature and fluid balance especially useful for chronic kidney patients, particularly after a transplant.
- Improved charts: The chart display has been further optimized to look better and be easier to read.
- Record events: The app now lets you record events such as a doctor visit or a change in medication.
Horst Klier: "We received strong support from the Federal Kidney Association (Bundesverband Niere e.V.) and the PKD Familial Cystic Kidney Association (Verein PKD Fam. Zystennieren e.V.) when creating the new app. The new vital signs are especially important for kidney patients, who can now easily record this information in the app and have it evaluated."
