ShuntCare
ShuntCare
A simple symptom-tracking and appointment-preparation companion for adults and families living with a VP shunt. Logs symptoms, organizes medical profile information, and exports a printable summary for clinic visits. Works offline, in 11 languages. Informational support only — not a medical device, not for emergency use.
A simple set of features for adults and families managing day-to-day shunt care. Twelve tools, organized around how you actually use the app. ShuntCare is informational only — it does not diagnose, monitor for emergencies, or replace your clinical team.
Log symptoms day by day and see them organized for conversations with your clinician.
A daily informational summary based on what you have logged, grouped into green / yellow / red bands. Bands are informational only and reflect common combinations described in patient-education materials. Always discuss findings with your treating clinician.
Generate a printable 30-day symptom log to bring to your neurology visit: profile, revisions, allergies, medications with adherence %, and symptoms grouped by week. It is a structured note — not a clinical report.
See top logged symptoms, streaks, and a 14-day informational trend (improving / stable / worsening) based on your entries. For your own awareness only.
Build a complete picture, one minute at a time.
Log how you or your child feel today. The app shows a transparent informational summary of what you logged, supports temperature entry, and displays symptom history at a glance.
Take or skip every dose. See per-medication % compliance, current streak, and missed doses over the last 30 days.
MRI, CT, neurology, shunt check, custom — schedule any reminder. Before each visit, generate a pre-visit questions PDF with the topics you want to cover.
Your medical history, organized and ready when seconds count.
Patient details, shunt model and valve settings, placement, comorbidities, allergies, current medications. Export as PDF anytime.
Three taps to show paramedics or any clinician: shunt details, allergies, blood type, medications, emergency contacts. Works fully offline.
Attach MRI, CT, ultrasound reports and scan summaries. Searchable, color-coded by modality, accessible during travel and emergencies.
Find help anywhere. Share what matters with the right people.
Search nearby hospitals using community-maintained OpenStreetMap data. View approximate distances and directions. Capability information is community-contributed — always verify with the hospital before relying on it for time-critical care.
Save your neurosurgeon, pediatrician, hospital contacts, opening hours, and full notes. Always with you, always offline.
Generate a read-only encrypted snapshot of the last 30 days. Send a single PDF or JSON file to any neurosurgeon for an appointment, with a 30-day token and full revocation control. The snapshot is a structured log, not a clinical report.
On-device by default. No ads. No tracking. Clear controls to export or delete your data.
