Mobile health (mHealth) provides a new way to bridge the communication gap between patients and their primary health care providers. This study investigates how a mobile application can support Dutch pregnant women. A prototype, called Babywijzer, was designed to support pregnant women's needs. Babywijzer is a mobile intervention, which enables pregnant women to search directly for an answer to their pregnancy related questions and follow current evidence based recommendations. The early evaluation showed that the Babywijzer app has a positive effect on the pregnant women's knowledge, awareness, confidence and satisfaction. |
