What the app does not do !
The app is designed for helping the owner on the long term management of pet diabetes.
- The app doesnt record daily blood glucose concentrations. Instead, we have chosen to guide the owner to producing a Blood Glucose Curve that makes more sense for evaluating the response to the treatment (see http://diabetespetmanager.com/diabetes-in-cats/cat-diabetes-treatment/cat-diabetes-home-monitoring/ for cats and http://diabetespetmanager.com/diabetes-in-dogs/dog-diabetes-treatment/dog-diabetes-home-monitoring/ for dogs)
- The app doesnt record daily insulin concentration that doesnt make sense in our view.
What the app does !
Reminds of insulin injection and meal times:
Treatment of diabetes includes daily insulin injections and a special diet, both given at precise times of the day. Accuracy is crucial to the success of the therapy.
Diabetes Pet Manager app can be programmed to notify the owner at these exact times.
- Program insulin injection times: 1 to 2 times a day
- Program feeding times: 1 to 6 times a day
Home monitoring:
Veterinarians often ask owners to monitor their pet at home. Owners have to measure blood glucose, measure weight changes, and note symptoms or abnormal feeding behaviors. Diabetes Pet Manager Application helps owners record this information and email it directly to the cat or dog’s vet.
Records symptoms
- Select and record the symptoms your pet has experienced during the day. They are presented in a list that distinguishes between hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic symptoms
- Receive a special warning for hypoglycemic symptoms
Produces the Blood Glucose Curve
The vet may ask the owner to perform a Blood Glucose Curve on a regular basis. The results should be sent to the vet for interpretation. It will help him/her adapt the treatment (insulin dose and type)
- Program times interval between 2 consecutive blood takings (1,2 or 3 hours)
- Choose blood glucose unit: mg/dL (range 0-500), mmol/L (range 0-30), or g/L (range 0-5)
- Get reminded of each sampling time by the app
- Record data (times of the blood samples & blood glucose values).
- Watch the Blood Glucose Curve in the “Reporting" section
- Receive a monthly reminder to perform a Blood Glucose Curve
Records actual food consumption
- Estimate and record the amount of food leftovers of each meal
- Watch the actual food intake curve in the “Reporting” section
Records weight evolution
- Choose the unit (lbs or kg) for the pet weight in the “My Pet” tab of the “My Vet and Me” section (do it only once)
- Record your pet’s weight
- Watch the weight evolution curve in the "Reporting" section
- Receive a weekly reminder to weigh your dog or cat
Helps contact the attending veterinarian
