mMamee: A mHealth Platform for Monitoring and Assessing Maternal Environmental Exposure |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
Over the last years significant efforts have been made to prevent and/or minimize exposure to a wide range of environmental risks (e.g. air pollution and nutrition) that adverse health effects especially among vulnerable populations including pregnant women. Towards this direction, mHealth approaches can provide the means for remotely capturing the environmental factors that affect maternal health, and replace traditional, tedious ways of logging, e.g. face-to-face interviews. This work presents mMamee, a mHealth platform for monitoring and assessing maternal environmental exposure. mMamee employs a client-server architecture and addresses the integration of sensing data and descriptive input on maternal daily habits. The future application of this platform to monitor environmental exposure during pregnancy is outlined. The conclusions derived highlight the feasibility of mMamee for the realization of long-term epidemiological studies. |
