Living Well With Sickle Cell

Features Living Well With Sickle Cell

The Living Well with Sickle Cell phone application will allow patients who have sickle cell disease to better manage their daily lives.
The components of the application will be specific to different factors of sickle cell management so that the application can be used effectively.
Users will be able to log and track their medical appointments and other events with a calendar, as well as pain and mood levels and water intake.
They can also compare trends between these aspects through a comparison analysis feature.
There will also be a panic button function, which will be used to notify previously selected contacts if a pain crisis is occurring.
In addition, users will be notified of extreme weather conditions and can explore current sickle cell news through an internal RSS feed.
If patients allow, all of this information will be sent to researchers to help further sickle cell research.
