myCath app for iPhone and iPad

This app offers you optimal support in dealing with your implanted catheter system (port, PICC and Hickman). It contains all the information and functions you need for correct care and maintenance.
Journal keeping is straightforward thanks to the app’s modern and user-friendly design.

The app performs a range of different functions:

• It informs you and your relatives about the implantable catheter system you are using.

• It serves as a treatment protocol and keeps a record of aspects such as catheter type, wellbeing, timing of dressing changes, etc.

• You no longer need to carry a journal, ID card or other documents, as all of the information you need is available conveniently on your smartphone.

• You can use the app yourself, and are familiar with the relevant hygiene measures.

• You can share your data with your treatment team.

Data protection is guaranteed by the manufacturer. All of your data recorded in the app are saved locally on your device only. Your entries are not sent by the app to any external servers.

This app was developed in collaboration with specialist nursing staff, app developers and affected patients in Switzerland.
