Digitalization Maternal and Prenatal Care Reporting Systems by Using Multimodal Telecommunication Devices for Monitoring Systems in the Rural West Bandung County Indonesia

Objectives: West Java Province contribute 19.8% mother mortality in Indonesia; is the highest than other provinces. We proposed the Digitalization Maternal and Prenatal care Systems (DigiMAPS) that tries to improve recording and reporting system in order to monitoring, improving health facility and managing prevention program. Methods: Gunung Halu is located in West Bandung District was chosen due its contour-infrastructures obstacle. Requirement are derived by DigiMAPS and startup customer-problem-solution. Results: We designed developed device, network, tele-consultation application and multi modality communication systems supporting various user accesses including SMS, web- and mobile application-based entry. It consist several access network including broadband wireline (xDSL), 2G-3G, WiFi and VSAT IP. We identified the following assumptions: (I) The communication networks are focus on public broadband IP network either using wireless/wireline approaches whenever applicable in target area. (II) The communication solutions considers various device requirements including PC, tablet and smartphone; DigiMAPS application has been developed using web- and android-based concepts. (III) The platforms are designed to support software as a service in cloud terminology, rather than client-server approach. Conclusions: We have developed the DigiMAPS prototype in the rural area of Bandung county Indonesia. DigiMAPS will collect datas in order to monitor the quality of healthcare as well as for tele-consultation and data analysis to make early intervention by midwives, doctors and stakeholders in Bandung county, Indonesia.
