Narcolepsy Monitor

Discover a tailored approach to managing narcolepsy with the Narcolepsy Monitor app, designed to empower individuals to track and understand the impact of their symptoms. Living with narcolepsy, a chronic sleep disorder, varies significantly among individuals, making it crucial to monitor how symptoms fluctuate over time or in response to medication.

On initial use, you are presented with a comprehensive questionnaire regarding your narcolepsy to ensure a personalized experience—this step is a one-time process. Once set up, the focus is on the frequency and, more importantly, the level of inconvenience caused by each symptom, acknowledging that occurrence does not always equate to discomfort.

An intuitive interface awaits with five colored bars representing the severity of symptomatic burden. Commencing with a list of common narcolepsy symptoms, it allows you to customize this list by adding new symptoms or discarding those that no longer apply. Adjust the symptom's position on the scale to match the discomfort it causes, then hit 'save' to track your entries.

The lowest bar signifies the presence of symptoms that don't hinder your daily activities, and a 'bin' icon is available for symptoms that have ceased. Additionally, there is an option to annotate changes in medication or other notable insights.

The app acts as a supportive tool, enabling accurate recording of any shifts in your condition simply by repositioning icons on subsequent visits and pressing 'save' to confirm your current status.

Designed with the expertise of a leading sleep medicine center, this application is a reflective tool that brings clarity and control to individuals navigating the complexities of narcolepsy, aiding in the journey to improved wellbeing.
