miTRAX Custom Patient App Improves Outcomes, Saves Time and Money
Doctors’ appointments can be frustrating for two reasons: too little doctor face time and difficulty remembering what the doc told you to do. A new Nebraska-based patient mobile app solves both problems.
miTRAX, available in desktop and mobile versions, provides custom information to individual patients and gathers data for doctors through the lifetime of a diagnosis or procedure. A doctor’s healthcare team assembles custom modules for each patient to use during treatment: timely reminders, multimedia demonstrations, diagrams, animations, videos, surveys, descriptions and more.
In turn, patients log exercises, track medications, look up answers, and communicate concerns, all within the program. Family members and other caregivers can log in to serve as proxies and advocates, keeping both patients and doctors accountable.
miTRAX is the brainchild of Dr. Robert Rhodes and technology veteran Rex Lamb. The program is an outgrowth of its predecessor, InjuReplay, which provides visual sports injury content to athletes and spectators.
