Abstract

For the containment of chronic diseases, mHealth tools, for example mobile apps, provide great opportunities to track the disease progression and to give useful recommendations. In this project, possible data-driven enhancements for an already existing mobile app for patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis are discussed, developed and implemented. This happens in an ongoing feedback-cycle, including app developers, medical experts, patients and data scientists. The new features improve the app experience and are currently being evaluated in an observational study.
