'Let's Go' Software helps Parkinson's Patients

Let's Go Software helps Parkinson's patients and their caregivers better manage their symptoms, side effects of medications, and improve their medical care.

(PRWEB) April 2, 2003

Parkinson’s patients who suffer from a chronic course of slowness, stiffness, and tremors, now have new medications, and surgeries available to them. Now they also have the ability to take greater control over their Parkinson’s care because of the new ‘Let’s Go’ Parkinson’s software. The new software allows Parkinson’s patients to track their medications, response to medications, doctor appointments, side effects, lab tests, and symptoms.

One of the features of the Let’s Go software allows patients to print reports and take their history of symptoms and medications to their doctors which result in a better tailored medication regimen, and better mobility. In addition, they can reduce the likelihood of dyskinesias related to medications if the medications are dosed properly.

Patients are also able to communicate more effectively with their doctors as a result of having access to their medical data. As a result, their doctor visits are more efficient and care more targeted. In addition, if at anytime they should need emergent care, immediate access to their medical information may not be available, but with the Let’s Go software, patients and their caregivers will have their information available.

Parkinson’s Caregivers also have the ability to track all their loved ones data, which allows them to be more efficient when going to the doctor. It is especially helpful for those families where different family members are sharing the caregiving responsibility. The printed reports allow a current record of symptoms and medications regardless if they were the ones who have been primarily involved in their daily care. As result, the caregiver burden is reduced.
