Cell-phone Based i. DART Clinic Application for 1
Introduction About Cell-Life Ø i. DART Ø l Ø The problem we address l Ø intelligent Distribution of Anti-Retroviral Treatment ARV dispensing problems in resource constrained areas The Solution l Cell-phone based ARV distribution and monitoring application 2
Process 3
Outcomes Our project hopes to achieve: Ø An i. DART clinic application that is deployed on a cell-phone. Ø A client-server relationship between the pharmacy server and a cell-phone(s). Ø A wider distribution of ARV dispensing software. Ø A greater reach for the pharmacist. 4
Considerations Ø Usability of interface on a mobile phone Ø Security l l l Sensitive data Cell-phone theft Authentication Ø Availability of network coverage Ø Ongoing research on mobile technologies Ø Ethical considerations 5
Risks Risk Apps not compatible on Multiple platforms Poor adaptation to system Mitigation Compile list of compatible phones Participatory design Delay in design sessions Use of design personas App. does not fit a particular clinic’s processes Overlooking previous work Modular implementation Hardware theft Tight monitoring Network coverage Use store-and-forward methods consultations 6
Resources Ø Programming environment • J 2 ME on Series 60 platform • Carbide. j with Eclipse for development • Mobile Emulator like Nokia Prototype SDK Ø Equipment • Camera phone – Nokia N Series • Zebra label printer for pharmacy • PC with development software, cables and bluetooth. Ø People • Cell-Life supervisors – Sarah Brown, Melissa Loudon • Cell-Life Mobile Application developers – Kieran Sharpey. Schafer, Rashid Limbada • Pharmacist at Desmond Tutu HIV Centre 7
