bp Trax Blood Pressure App Compares Life-Style Changes To Medications

DataDancer Medical Systems and iMobLife, have launched bp Trax, an innovative Apple Blood Pressure (BP) App that Tracks, Analyzes and Compares a patient's performance across different BP treatments.

Finding a patient's optimum blood pressure treatment is as simple as viewing graphs comparing the performance of all attempted treatments. Treatments can be Life-Style Changes (diet, exercise, etc.), Prescribed Medications or combinations of both treatment types.

Many physicians assess blood pressure treatment performance from only a few MD Office results. By contrast, bp Trax creates a Patient<+>Physician partnership resulting in improved treatment compliance with many additional patient results. By combining Home& MD Office measurements, bp Trax improves treatment efficiency, reduces cost and also helps identify White Coat Syndrome and Masked Hypertension.

"The effective treatment of hypertension is best achieved by using Treatment (Tx) Performance Technology or simply showing the Patient & Physician which treatments work best" said Michael L. Kohut, president of DDMS. "Most blood pressure applications totally ignore treatment performance and only display blood pressure continuously over time. This makes it almost impossible to sort and compare the performance of different treatments. bp Trax resolves this problem with innovative design and easy to understand graphics.

"bp Trax is the missing puzzle piece", says Kohut who was previously diagnosed with Stage-2 Hypertension. "I searched the Internet for treatment performance software that just didn't exist ... so I had to create it myself." Using bp Trax, Kohut's blood pressure has returned to Normal and he is no longer on any BP medication. Life-Style Changes like weight reduction, diet modifications and exercise are powerful, low-cost treatment alternatives that now maintain his BP within the Normal range.
