Essential Medical Tools Help Mom Diagnose Critical Medical Condition

Whether you are strolling with your toddler in the garden, reaching office by metro or attending a concert with your elderly mother, you cannot simply plan for unforeseen, unprecedented medical conditions. What if your elderly mother faints or feels dizzy all of a sudden or your baby starts crying while you are chatting with your friends – are you prepared enough to act on emergency situations? Well, that’s the reason why I keep these essential medical tools to act on diagnosing any health condition, instead of acting on impulse and fret.

I took help from health experts to select the right medical apps that a layperson can use without much hiccups, can navigate through, that yield accurate data and diagnosis. After I collected information and tips from them, following medical apps won favors of all of them. The day I first used one of these apps I thanked them I realized how essential these apps are for a mom who needs to take care of the family.

Name: Instant Heart Rate by Azumio

Platform: iPhone, iPhone, iPhone, iPod touch, iPad 2 with iOS 4.0 or later and Android

Price: 0.99

“The Best Things in Life Are Free” and Instant Heart Rate by Azumio is an almost free app. This app has been rewarded with one of those for being the proud winner of The best Health & Fitness app on Mobile Premier Awards 2011. The app (both for iOS and Android) lets me trace heartbeat like we see in the ER rooms. The app uses the technology used by medical pulse oximeter that just requires placing fingertip on the iPhone camera. Within a few minutes, the app will show current heart rate and the pulse. People like me who are using this app get benefits real-time PPG, sharing through Facebook, Twitter and other common social networks.

Name: Diabetes Buddy Lite – Control Your Blood Sugar                

Platform: iPhone, iPod touch and iPad with iOS 4.0 or later

Price :  Free

The app came exceptionally handy as suggested by our family physician. This app helps a great tool track and detect that factor in increase or decrease in blood sugar levels. I could also share fluctuations in blood sugar levels with my family physician no matter wherever I would be. The app also keeps log of insulin injections, medications, physical activities, regular carbohydrate intake, glucose level. If you are advised by your physicians checking weight and BMI and sending reports, then Diabetes Buddy Lite – Control Your Blood Sugar will be a mandatory diabetes detecting app.

Similarly, I have also kept other medical apps like Vision Test by 3 Sided Cube (for optical tests), Livestrong MyQuit Coach (to quit smoking),Depressioncheck (checks for risks of depression and anxiety).
