Abstract

There is increasing consensus among health-care professionals and patients alike that many disorders can be managed, in principle, much better at home than in an out-patient clinic or hospital. In the paper, we describe a novel temporal Bayesian network model for the at home time-related development of preeclampsia, a common pregnancy-related disorder. The network model drives an android-based smartphone application that offers patients and their doctor insight into whether or not the disorder is developing positively-no clinical intervention required-or negatively-clinical intervention is definitely required. We discuss design considerations of the model and system, and review results obtained with actual patients.
