iPhone app: MyFactor App Allows Patients Hemophilia to electronically record

Towards the end of the week, time for health care. MyFactor App for iPhone or iOs device  from BioRx, a national specialty pharmacy and infusion services provider, designed for patients with hemophilia and related bleeding disorders.



The app was developed and tested by members of the hemophilia patient community. It was created to give patients and caregivers one place to monitor and manage their home treatment.

The MyFactor app allows patients to electronically record bleeding episodes and treatments, and facilitates easy sharing of information with their healthcare team, including physicians, pharmacists, nurses and care coordinators.

Today, the vast majority of people with bleeding disorders receive homecare pharmacy and infusion services to help manage their day-to-day care.

Bleeding disorder patients and caregivers can use a "wizard" style graphical interface on MyFactor to log details of treatments and bleeding episodes - including type, cause, location, and levels of pain and severity.



MyFactor can also generate historical reports in PDF and CSV formats at the touch of a button - customized by date range, keyword or event type. 

Additionally, patients can use MyFactor to set up regular infusion reminders and alerts, add detailed notes, switch between multiple user accounts, and attach photos to show active bleeds, range of motion, or other information that may be useful to the healthcare team.

The MyFactor app available for the iPhone operating system but can also be downloaded to iPads. BioRx plans to release a version for Android devices in the next few months.
Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder characterized by episodes of prolonged bleeding. It affects males almost exclusively. Bleeding may occur spontaneously or as a result of trauma. Von Willebrand disease is a related bleeding disorder that affects males and females equally. Some estimates put the prevalence of von Willebrand disease as high as 1 percent to 2 percent of the U.S. population. Factor XIII deficiency is an extremely rare inherited blood disorder affecting 1 in 5 million live births. In affected individuals, the blood fails to clot appropriately, resulting in delayed wound healing. Each bleeding disorder is the result of a deficiency in or defective production of certain naturally occurring clotting factors in the bloodstream. Treatment is typically by intravenous infusion of commercially prepared hemophilia clotting factors.(wiki)

Further planned releases of the app, due in 2014, will allow customers to access their BioRx pharmacy records and track delivery of medications to their home.
