Monitoring People with Depression in the Community: Regulatory Aspects

Abstract

Help4Mood is a system for supporting the treatment of people with depression in the community. Relevant aspects of the patient’s condition are monitored; summaries and trends are shared with the clinician. In this paper, we describe how the decision to provide for integration into clinical practice has affected design and implementation of Help4Mood. We excluded useful functionality such as medication reminders and moved to a laptop as a secure platform.
