An intelligent m-Health Platform for Chronic Diseases: Design and Conception

Abstract

Chronic diseases are one of the principal causes of mortality in the globe. This dramatic
health status conducts many researchers to investigate and explore new solutions using the
advantages of mobile health technology. For that reason, we propose an adaptive, context-aware
and low-cost intelligent solution, providing a real-time alert system and an efficient management
of critical cases. This paper stands for a state of art of mobile health proposed solutions managing
this kind of diseases. It leads to a new approach in medical mobile application's design based on
patient's needs, health professional's concerns, and other solution’s lacks. Our new platform's
design can be considered as a novel intelligent mobile assistant for chronic diseases.
