Abstract

A7 Software is currently working on Andaman7 (see www.andaman7.com ), a mobile application allowing to create, manage and share electronic health records1 to improve collaboration between doctors and patients. It is composed of client applications running on mobile devices and a back end server written in Java, responsible for synchronizing data between them. Andaman7 for iPad was launched recently on the AppStore.

We are willing to design, implement and deploy a PKI on our server, allowing client applications to encrypt end-to-end their medical data exchanges as well as messaging system data. The private and public keys will be generated on client-side and the server will be responsible for distributing and certifying the public keys. In order to minimize the traffic between clients and server, an algorithm similar to PGP will be used to achieve the asymmetric encryption/decryption.

Furthermore, we would like to develop a messaging system integrated with Andaman7 allowing users to securely send messages to each other. Users will be able to invite or block others. Notifications will inform users who receive a message or an invitation. The new messaging system will have to respect the current Andaman7 architecture and concepts.

Abstract

Patients may sometimes fail to comply to their medication whether it was from forgetting to take the medicine, from taking it at the wrong time or even from taking too much of it. This is called medication noncompliance or medication non-adherence. Indeed, depending to the diseases, those medications can be very complex. This noncompliance has two major consequences: it first affects the patient's health more or less seriously and it also costs billions to governments in health care.

On the other side, Andaman7 is a Synchronized Health Record that connects together patients and doctors. It is a mobile platform allowing the patient to consult and share his health record.

One key solution to medication noncompliance is to establish a better communication between the patient and the physician. It thus seems natural to use Andaman7 as a tool to enhance the non-adherence of the patients. This is the goal of this Master thesis: develop a medication compliance system integrated into Andaman7. 

Using this system, the patient is able to add a medication to his medical record and also activate the reminders for this medication, so that the system will trigger a notification when it is time to take the prescribed medicine.

This manuscript will first detail all the medication compliance context before giving the details of the system, all the features that should be in it in the scope of this work, how it was designed and integrated into Andaman7, implemented, as well as some guidelines for further development, from testing strategies to others features to enhance the system.

Another topic will be addressed in this Master thesis, which is the integration of a medicine database in Andaman7. The motivation is to allow the physician or patient to be able to select a drug from a complete list of medicines. To do so, this list has to be populated with the data from an external source. This work will show how a list of drugs can be retrieved from the CBIP/BCFI database.

Abstract

Andaman7 is a mobile application for managing health records, developed by A7 Software company, based in Boncelles. This collaborative app has been designed to allow users to display, edit and exchange medical data, and by these means,to improve the communication between patients and doctors.

This master’s thesis has been conducted as part of the Andaman7 project. The goal consisted in developing mobile services for Andaman7, focusing on the Android version, and more generally, providing new features and solutions to the application.

The goal of the work was reached, as many solutions have been provided. Indeed, different tasks were performed for building or improving the GUI of the Android app: the presentation menu was modified in order to be integrated in a navigation drawer, the handmade toolbar was replaced by an Android built-in Toolbar, the screen rotations and the restoration of the application state were taken in charge, and a splash screen was added. Moreover, the GUI of the rules defining which parts of the patients’ records are shared with other users was re-designed, the languages and translations of the application were integrated. A notification system, based on Google Cloud Messaging, was also implemented. The confidentiality, integrity and origin of the medical data exchanged through the app server with other users was ensured, by integrating some cryptography mechanisms in the app. Finally, an analysis of two possible ways to perform secure backups of the users’ electronic health records was realized.

The present paper reports the choices and implementation details that have been made throughout the thesis, but also presents some alternatives and perspectives for enhancing the provided features in the future.
