STAR: The Symptom Tracker app has been developed by clinicians and patients with hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis, also known as ATTRv amyloidosis, for people with ATTR amyloidosis and their families.
Hereditary ATTR amyloidosis is an inherited, progressive disease caused by a genetic mutation that results in the accumulation of a modified transthyretin (TTR) protein. This results in the formation of amyloid deposits in the heart, nerves, gastrointestinal tract, and other organs.
Reviews
“We need tools to encourage patients to be clear and specific when describing their symptoms.”
- Professor Philip Hawkins, National Amyloidosis Centre University College, London, UK.
“The disease can do a lot of damage if you let it evolve, so knowing, being vigilant, may help you to be diagnosed and get a treatment earlier. Therefore this may avoid irreversible degradations, such a severe balance issue or some difficulties to walk.”
- Jean-Christophe, hereditary ATTR amyloidosis patient, France.
Built with both the patient and clinician in mind.
