"UTS Blood Pressure 1.8.2 : Excellent Palm OS blood pressure software"
HANDHELD COMPUTING -- REVIEWS
by Harv Laser Rated: A
...
UTrackSys.com's Blood Pressure software is an excellent, reliable, feature-packed
choice. I tried some other blood pressure programs, including a couple free ones,
but this is truly a case of you get what you pay for. UTSBP is high quality, and
extremely easy-to-use.

"PDAs - New Software for Handhelds Can Help You Manage Your Well-being"
THE EXECUTIVE LIFE -- HEALTH
by Arlene Weintraub
... Richard Miller has always struggled to control his high blood pressure.
So last year he turned his Palm handheld computer into a miniature
medical assistant. Twice a day, he takes his blood pressure, then taps
the results into a software program on his Palm called UTS Blood Pressure.
The PDA alerts him when his pressure spirals too high. And it generates
detailed charts that allow him to spot trends, such as which activities
spark dangerous peaks. Miller can e-mail the info right to his doctor
or transfer it to his PC and print it out. "It gives my doctor a good
indication of what's going on when he's not around to check on me,"
says the 60-year-old Miller, who lives in Fresno, Calif.
...
"Jack of all trades"
One thing computers are very good at is keeping track of sequences of numbers.
Owning a handheld opens up all sorts of uses for tracking things recorded when out and about,
and this is the focus of Universal Tracking System. An impressive built -in wizard helps you set up a database for the item(s) you're tracking, specifying units, labels and conversion factors if necessary. You then enter amounts for each item as and when recorded, with UTS tallying them up, providing daily summaries and regular charts. Typical uses might include diet tracking, money management or simply recording the number of alcoholic drinks you get through each week. There 's even a timer mode, whereby UTS can keep track of time spent on specific activities.

"... UTS is more of a flexible database than tracker, since it allows you to trend any value ...
Its a good looking new entry to the Palm database market ..."
"Tracking Software Replaces the Diabetes Logbook" by Nina Ravey, NP, a family nurse practitioner at the Shirley Medical Clinic in Jennings, La
... It is an understatement to say that diabetes is an insidious illness that
requires constant monitoring. You and your patients must regularly monitor
diet, blood glucose levels, insulin amounts, exercise and well-being. When
patients use the Universal Tracking System (UTS) Diabetic Kit Bundle on
their PDAs, all of this data is readily available ...
"... UTS is a hierarchical database, set up to allow people to track numbers and trends for just about anything. Its claim to fame is that it is the only such program available that is flexible enough to get their "all-purpose" moniker ..."
"...
I will admit that I have not yet had time to read the documentation for UTS. I bought it
to solve a specific problem. I have high blood pressure that I should track daily, but due to a change in my daily schedule I was forgetting to do
so. I thought that by buying a cool little application for my Palm (I do everything in my Palm, which is something of a hobby for me) I could
encourage myself to remember to take my BP.
And it worked perfectly. I really like UTS BP (which is what I bought the product for). My doctor also likes it. And having it, I now take my BP
at least once a day, usually twice, and chart it.
Honestly, I only bought UTS to get UTS BP (not that I am complaining). But since I have it, I am starting to use it to track my weight and
would like to track my daily walking. I also may use it to time other "exercise" such as lawn mowing, raking, and other physical chores.
Thanks for a great program. As I learn more about it I am sure that I will find more uses for it, and it may encourage me to track other aspects of
my health.

A $9.95 downloadable program for my Palm handheld computer,
the UTS Blood Pressure application (http://www.utracksys.com),
logged my blood pressure and pulse and gave me data to show my
doctor during checkups.
Other Palm applications played key roles in my loss, too.

"UTS Blood Pressure ... You can see that the program gives you a nice way to keep a record of blood pressure and also outputs line and bar charts as well.
I think the UTS would be great for things also like blood sugar monitoring, INR records, Peak flow measurements and other medical measurements.
..."
"... Nice clear graphs. Very flexible by the two-tier system of matters and targets ...
Ability to choose different time scales. I like the speed and the 'purge' facility.
Before, I was using a number of different timers, expense programs, graphing programs,
etc. Most of these were very sluggish, and old values had to be deleted one by one ..."

Great soft. First I used it for time tracking to bill my clients. Now I also track my cigarettes (I use an example from UTS site) and I've reduced my nicotine consumption twice. Really universal!

"... Fantastic product! At the abstract level it is very simple but very powerful. I'm still finding uses for it ...
It is simply a tool that I can apply to any number of uses ...
Once I could see it in the abstract, as a tool for recording and displaying data that I collect, then it became apparent to me just how powerful it was...
It's just a good, solid, fundamental tool...
Half the fun is finding uses for UTS! Keep up the good work...
It just looked so cool I had to have it...

I purchased the bundled UTS plus Blood Pressure tracker immediately after reading the product description.
The ease of entry of values and the well-thought out flexibility of presentation of results. I would say you have done an excellent job...
Since my health condition requires constant monitoring of physical vital signs I went
looking in the Palm software catalog for software to do exactly what yours accomplishes. I
purchased it immediately and less than a month later you kindly sent me the upgrade, which
answered all my reservations about the lack of charting flexibility in the earlier version. I have
recommended your product to several "computer literate" friends in my age group and will certainly
continue to do so

I had tried several blood pressure tracking programs for my palm and they were
all so so, but this one is by far the best of the lot. It is made even better
by the fact that it is a multi-function program that does MUCH more than just
track blood pressure and has several other very good add ons.
In this time and age of
garbage being passed off as serious software for handhelds it is good to
find a company like yours that puts out quality software that actually does
what you expect it to do so we need to make sure the people know about that

UTS: at PalmGear.com
From the times of PalmPilot 5000 (an eternity) up to my newest Palm M515,
I've searched continously for a "tracking utility" which enabled me to
establish a relation between my coffee intake and migraine evolution
as well as body weight. I've started with the memopad, used "database"
customizable programs but they were not pratical at all: too many taps,
grafittying and drop-down menus each time I wanted to store one more input.
On my surfing on PalmGear I "stumbled" on UTS, an astonishing "tracking
utility". I have tried and bought it three days after. Easy input, very
good interface, astonishing "wizard" concept allowing immediately
customization, superb "target" concept and "graphics" to view data. And
I used every day ... Remark: I've not perceived immediately all the
potential of the concept of the program ... only after having tried
it ... Hint: You should also try it, as I did.
UTS Weight: at PalmGear.com
Ideal add-on companion for Universal Tracking System: very easy and
friendly weight input, very good interface, four distinct "graphics"
views of input body weight data (plain "weight", Body Mass Index,
Daily Gain/Loss, Measurements), five selectable viewing intervals
(1 week, 30-, 60-, 120- and 360-days), goal tracking with plan,
astonishing "interface", color selection ... and (optionally) even
foresees your "shoe" and/or "cloth" weight. I never bought a Palm
program which pleased me as this does. Hint: try it

I installed the latest version of the UTS Blood Pressure just before going into hospital for a minor operation. The doctors there were very
impressed when I could show them the hourly blood pressure readings that were automatically taken after the operation and chart them on my
Palm ...
My wife saw her new doctor (actually my doctor) yesterday and was told to track her BP. This morning she asked how she
was going to do that. And of course I knew exactly how, as she also has am m515. So I am going off to the Web site to buy a license for her as
well. This is just a great application. I have a friend who is Type 1 Diabetic, and the next time we see them (probably next weekend) I intend to
show this to her. She is not a PDA user -- maybe this will get her interested. I know the doctors in the hospital Tuesday were really impressed
with my ability to not only track but graph and summarize my post-procedure BP readings.
Thanks. This is a great little application.

I absolutely LOVE this program. I recently went to the doctor and was told I need to change my
lifestyle -- eat better, exercise and work towards losing weight and lowering my blood pressure. So, I made the
decision to do this and immediately began to look for a program that would help me manage this new lifestyle. The
UTS, BP and Weight programs work PERFECTLY together and takes the headache out of keeping track of the
most important thing one could ever manage -- your health!!
