This is a comprehensive education app about ankylosing spondylitis. It includes all of the basic material from the free iAnkylosingSpondylitis app and adds extensive clinician material only found in this pro version. Whilst this pro app was designed for clinicians to provide patient education on AS, it can also be useful for patients and friends who want to know details about the diagnosis and treatment of ankylosing spondylitis.


REVIEWS
"Excellent. Nothing short of brilliant, has helped me piece together the jigsaw of missing answers I had wanted to understand.. What an app." - Paul Meenan UK

"Another great education app. This is a wonderful followup to iSpineCare with the emphasis on AS. We have been spending considerable time trying to educate physios around Australia about this condition as we feel it is not well recognised. This app is an excellent way for us to continue educating physios or any other health professional including our own staff. A great resource, with outstanding animation and radiographic examples. How good is that SIJ animation! Thanks again guys for developing this app. Keep up the good work." - Physiotherapist AUS

"Very good app . I find it difficult to get good and detailed information on AS and am pleased to have found this app.." - Impoftheyard UK

CLINICIAN FEATURES
iAnkylosingSpondylitis Pro provides rapid, mobile, reproducible ankylosing spondylitis education.
Using verbal descriptions or still images alone for patient education is often ineffective in conveying the evolution of complex conditions. This is worsened when presenting to an un-informed audience in a time-poor, resource-limited, demanding medical environment. Patient education is improved with the use of this up-to-date technology which also provides clinician, clinic and insurer benefits. For clinicians, continuing education requires updatable access to the latest pathology, diagnostic and treatment protocols.
