OBJECTIVE To design and develop a chronic disease management system based on uni-app, so as to address the problems of interrupted off-hospital health monitoring and insufficient self-management among patients.

METHODS A system named “Palm Medical Management” for chronic disease management was developed by integrating pharmacy and computer science with mobile communication and voice intelligent interaction technologies. The functions and applications of its four core modules were discussed in detail, including reminders, monitoring, consultation, and health science popularization.

RESULTS The system customized easy-to-use and personalized out-of-hospital health management plans for patients through a multidisciplinary team, and delivered them to patients in a graphic-text-voice manner. This facilitated the timely implementation of chronic disease management plans by patients. Meanwhile, complete monitoring data were collected through active health surveillance, which laid a foundation for clinicians to dynamically adjust diagnosis and treatment regimens. Tests proved that the system operated stably and smoothly with simple operation and a user-friendly interface.

CONCLUSION Empowered by information construction, this system is expected to improve the prevention and control of chronic diseases, and provide support for the realization of a modern chronic disease co-management service system that is full-fledged, intelligent and age-appropriate.
