Intelligent Mobile Base Home Doctor Advisor for Babies

Abstract

The healthcare system has adopted the usage of information technology, including mobile applications, due to its reliability, low cost, and time efficiency. Most people are now familiar with mobile applications, including health care organizations and patients. Secure Intelligent Home Doctor Adviser (SIHDA) mobile application for Babies is developed under the guidelines of the British Medical Association (BMA). The objective of SIHDA is to provide online support and guidance for mothers and infants at home. Unified Modeling Language (UML) has been used to provide design models for the proposed IS application. As a part of this research, we gather software requirements from various SIHDA stakeholders and define system architecture and models. We developed different models, such as Use Case diagram, Activity Diagram, System Sequence Diagram, Entity Relationship Diagram, User Interface, Interactive Diagram, and Class Diagram. The proposed system is secure and intelligent. The system monitors the babies at home. When the baby becomes uncomfortable, it proactively alerts the parents/guardians and advises for immediate action.  In addition, the system can determine the vaccination date and type based on the child's age. The system also alarms ambulances from the nearest hospital in case of emergency. The usability of the design models of the developed system was evaluated by software engineers, and the acceptance rate was 84.8%.
