Health Oracle: Platform for diabetes self-management
Health Oracle, is an architecture oriented to provide services, products, processes and integral solutions at a distance (in Mobility) for the promotion, prevention and integral health care among people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2), among other related diseases ( CVD Cardiovascular Diseases, overweight / obesity, etc.), facilitating the self-management of health by the patients themselves, the access and use of formal care provided by professionals and health organizations, as well as the support for informal care provided by family and friends.
Description
To this end, a pre-competitive design and development of an innovative DM2 management platform designed in collaboration with the patients themselves, treating doctors, nurses, nutritionists and psychologists is proposed to activate and “empower” the people who present This disease in Mexico, with the purpose of providing them with tools for self-management of their own treatments and changes in their lifestyles, resulting in significant improvements in their state of health. Health Oracle will help users to have better monitoring and control of their management of DM2 and subsequent diseases, providing all the tools they need in one place: educational material, records of their care, personal health record, support, among others.
Uniquely, Health Oracle also presents users with an estimated personal risk profile, based on the patient’s records and lifestyles, indicating the probability that their disease/health condition is getting worse and in turn, the probability of developing diseases derived from DM2 such as obesity, hypertension, muscle conditions, retinopathy, etc.
The Health Oracle platform is considered an IDTI project, since it is oriented to the design and integral development of a set of modules that will allow us to know not only the physical health components of diabetic patients and other associated diseases, but also It also comprehensively and specialised addresses the physical, psychological, and social health situation of the disease, in a process of help and guidance to the different agents involved in the health-disease situation of diabetic people and their formal support networks and informal.
Through the Platform with its different modules and devices, with mobile applications (Apps) it will empower the different levels of end users (professionals, patients, family, and friends) to make decisions based on evidence, indications, and recommendations for empowerment and self-management of the patients themselves in the comprehensive care of their health-disease status.
On the other hand, the Health Oracle project also aims to influence the healthy and occupational lifestyles of patients, together with their informal care environments, providing indications, and recommendations related to their physical activity, nutrition, leisure, and leisure time. This project represents the starting point of a comprehensive system of innovative solutions with capabilities for the timely detection of health-disease problems of people monitored remotely, together with an effective and early intervention by the interdisciplinary health teams supported in the Oracle Health platform.
