Injection Tracking

Track the locations and ages of your injections.

This application is intended for patients whose long-term treatment requires injections at regular intervals. As a general rule, they are trained in the technique of self-injection in order to be able to treat themselves without the help of a health professional. A different injection site must be chosen each time, which reduces the risk of irritation or pain.

Examples of conditions concerned: multiple sclerosis, diabetes (glucose reading and insulin), cancers, asthma, renal failure, hematological diseases, psoriasis, ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.

Injected medications can cause side effects such as erythema, pain, induration, pruritus, edema, inflammation, hypersensitivity, etc. In this case, a regular rotation of the injection sites (locations of the injections) must be respected in order to ensure a sufficient tissue rest period for each site.

In the Sites tab, link sites (designated by the letters of the alphabet) to the front figure or the back figure, by clicking the relevant button ("Front" or "Back"). The selected buttons change to green color.

In the Front and Back tabs, the sites are represented graphically by semitransparent dots, each containing a letter corresponding to the site concerned. Position the dots freely on the desired locations, moving them with your finger. The application memorizes the positions in real time.

In the Tracking tab, to specify that an injection will be made in a given site, click on the "syringe" icon next to the site.

The age a site is the number of days since the last injection took place. It is displayed numerically on the same line as the letter designating the site, as well as in the form of a multicolored horizontal bar.

You can change the age of a site at any time by clicking on the corresponding letter.

When you exit and return to the Sites tab, they are reclassified automatically in descending order of injection. In other words, the first site displayed is the one in which the next injection is supposed to take place. However, you can choose another one if the one proposed does not suit you (residual pain, inflammation ...).

New : Set alarms (in "Misc" tab).

NB : Due to some possible restrictions related to battery usage, depending on the device on which the app is installed :

- Alarms might only work when the application is present among recent open applications.

- When the device has been restarted, any alarms might be deactivated. If it's the case, you just have to reopen the app in order to have any alarms reactivated.
