This database program tracks patient information for cholesterol management, but its focus may be too limited. LipidGuardian's concise interface presents easy-to-understand buttons to manage patients, doctors, medications, and lab work. Patient information includes general contact information, scheduled appointments, and health factors such as obesity, but there's no field for other health data, such as height or weight. You can add lab-work results and interventions for cholesterol-related data only, but there's no option to add other categories. LipidGuardian offers simple tools to chart cholesterol readings, create reminder letters, or a patient phone list. No information is available on whether this program can integrate with other electronic medical records, and import and export options are limited. Surprisingly, LipidGuardian can't be password-protected, although it contains private health information. This is an easy-to-use program, with a generous 120-day trial, but medical practitioners might want a program that captures a wider scope of health data.
