Features & Capabilities

IBDoc® is an in vitro diagnostic immunoassay for the quantitative determination of fecal calprotectin in human stool. It is intended as an aid to the assessment of inflammation of the intestinal mucosa for inflammatory bowel disease (e.g. Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis) monitoring.

As part of the IBDoc® calprotectin home test, IBDoc® app allows measuring the calprotectin concentration in a stool sample using a smartphone. The app contains an easy to understand tutorial explaining the test procedure step by step from the collection of the stool sample to sample extraction and loading of the pregnancy test-like test cassette. Once the test cassette is prepared, the IBDoc® app controls the mobile device camera to take a picture of the test cassette. The optical signal of the test is analyzed with the help of a specific barcode on the test cassette. The signal is translated into a result that indicates the calprotectin concentration in the stool sample.
The test information is managed on the smartphone itself and at the same time transmitted via a secure and encrypted connection to the IBDoc® Portal. The test results and connected patient information are stored securely on the IBDoc® Portal and can only be accessed by both the patient and his responsible healthcare practitioner.

The IBDoc® app features include:

- Tutorial with schematic drawings and text explaining the test procedure step by step

- A list of all test results performed by the patient

- Help menu with a tutorial video and support contact

User Reviews

Not user-friendly and something I will refuse to do again in the future. The process is full of delays, frustration, and wasted time to complete. Password reset links were broken on the app and website (no reset emails came to inbox/spam/junk), and I had to contact their support. The app would not accept logins and kept displaying errors. Scanning the cartridge was a nightmare. While convenient to complete at home thats where the positive ends. Extremely frustrating and discouraging.

Absolute trash. You do the test and get to the end and the app refuses to take a picture. The results are then incorrect and useless. Get better.
