Guide
Export records your clinician can use.
Published 2026-06-10.
The problem
Bring the dates with you.
Why bring an export instead of recalling it?
An appointment covers months of protocol in a few minutes. From memory, that turns into rough summaries, while the useful material is specific: which week, after which dose, how severe, how long. A dated export lets the visit start from the actual record.
What to export
Keep the export small.
What belongs in an appointment export?
A small, dated export is easier to use than a dump of everything. These four cover most protocol conversations.
Doses, including the skipped ones
A dose history that only shows successes hides the most clinically interesting weeks. Export taken and skipped doses together.
Side effects with severity and dates
An entry like “nausea, severity 6, started the day after the dose, lasted two days” gives a clinician something to work with.
The weight trend, not one number
A dated series shows pace and plateaus, which a single number at the appointment cannot.
Notes that carry context
Short notes about travel, illness, or schedule changes explain the outliers in the numbers.
In PepTrak
Local files, native share sheet.
How does exporting work in PepTrak?
PepTrak exports by data type (doses, side effects, weight entries, notes) as local CSV or JSON files through the iPhone share or save sheet. Because records live on the device, there is no cloud account in the export path: the file goes where you send it and nowhere else. The private tracking guide covers that storage model in detail.
Guide FAQ
Export questions.
What do people ask before exporting?
Should I export CSV or JSON for my doctor?
CSV opens in any spreadsheet, which makes it the safer choice for an appointment. JSON preserves more structure and suits personal archives or moving data between tools. PepTrak exports both, by data type.
How do I get records out of PepTrak?
Exports are local CSV or JSON files by data type (doses, side effects, weight, notes), delivered through the native iPhone share or save sheet. No cloud account is involved.
Is it safe to share a protocol export?
The export is a local file, so you control the route: AirDrop, a printed page, or a file saved to your device. Whoever receives the file holds a copy of sensitive health information, so share it the way you would share a medical record.
Will my clinician actually want this?
That is their call. This guide only makes sure the record exists and is easy to read; what gets acted on is up to the clinician.
