Duchenne UK

The Duchenne UK In Case of Emergency app is for patients and parents/caregivers of people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).

Use the app to store essential medical information and emergency contacts. In the event of an accident or emergency, this profile can be emailed to medical practitioners so that you/your child can be given the correct care.

Critical information about DMD and your medical needs can also be displayed on your lock screen, so that it is visible to first responders in the event you are unable to unlock your phone.

Patients with DMD need specific medical care, so it is essential that medical practitioners understand their treatments needs in accidents and emergencies. The app also contains essential guidance for practitioners based on internationally agreed standards of care for DMD and from UK Neuromuscular Clinical experts.
