Reviews

Reviewer: US Hereditary Angioedema Association (HAEA), USA
Review: "This app allows hereditary-angioedema (HAE) patients to keep detailed records of their disease-related information, including emergency and physician contacts, as well as individual attack data. “Recording and tracking triggers and symptoms of HAE attacks can be an important tool in managing this disease,” said Chief Medical Officer Dr Burt Adelman of Dyax. “Understanding the frequency and severity of these attacks can be of real value to both patients and their treating physicians.” ... Developed by a team of patient-education specialists at Dyax, along with input from HAE patients, the ‘HAE Attack Tracker’ is the first iPhone app designed specifically for HAE patients. ... The app provides a reference for patients and physicians, allowing them to monitor HAE attacks, and track a number of metrics that could help in the management of the condition."
