Multi-faceted e-health interventions for primary health care [ 2013 - 2017 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof David Peiris (Principal investigator)

Brief description There are large evidence practice gaps in primary health care leading to sub-optimal health outcomes. To address these gaps, I have devised HealthTracker, an e-health system for chronic disease management. I will evaluate the effectiveness of HealthTracker and develop three new system features: (1) a consumer focussed web portal, (2) three new chronic care modules for respiratory health, osteoporosis and fracture prevention, low back pain, and (3) implementation of the system in rural India.
