iLARS

iLARS is a specialized clinical tool designed to help patients monitor their health and functional recovery following surgery (Lower Anterior Resection). Created for use within partner healthcare institutions, the app provides a seamless way for patients to track their symptoms and share objective recovery data with their medical team.

KEY FEATURES

Daily Symptom Tracking — Easily record your daily condition, including bowel habits and physical well-being. Log frequency, consistency, urgency, and other bowel-related symptoms using validated scales such as the Bristol Stool Form Scale. The app helps you keep a clear picture of how you feel day by day.

Validated Questionnaires — Complete weekly LARS (Low Anterior Resection Syndrome) scores and monthly Quality of Life (QoL) assessments, including the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire when prompted. These standardized tools allow your doctor to monitor your progress over time and tailor follow-up care to your needs.

Activity Monitoring — Automatically sync your daily step count with the app (via Health Connect) to provide your doctor with objective data on your physical activity levels during recovery. Optional and permission-based; you stay in control of what is shared.

Clinic Integration — Your health data is securely shared with your treating physician, enabling more personalized follow-up care and better-informed medical consultations. Data is linked only to your unique patient code; no names, emails, or other identifiers are stored in the app.

Simple & Private Access — Access the app using a unique patient code provided by your hospital. No complex registration or lengthy setup is required. Your data is pseudonymized and stored securely. You can use the same code on another device to keep your history in one place.

FOR PATIENTS

FOR CLINICIANS AND HOSPITALS
