This chapter is the expansion of analysis and design step in our project.
4.1 Analysis
The modern age parents these days face the problem that they don’t have
enough time to take care everything about their babies. Thereby, our group want to use
knowledge about Information Technology apply to solve this problem.
There are so many applications that help users track their baby’s nursing
progress, growth, diaper changes and more, but it can’t give all believable information.
We have an idea about the baby’s tracking application which is monitored by medical
staffs and doctor directly. It is trustable for parents and help to reduce the mistake about
vaccination and medication taking time.
Oh! My baby is an application which is for tracking your new born baby. This
application has three interesting functions which can help users in various ways. First of
all, vaccination is the function that retrieves the doctor visits table for the first year baby
from hospital database, so parent can be ensured that the application will provide a
believable and trustable baby's first year vaccination lists which are from clearly source
and professional medical staff verification. Moreover, it can send notification when it’s
time to receive the vaccine. This will help users make sure that they give all complete
doses for their babies. This function has the process as same as the medication function
and doctor visit function. Secondly, send message menu is the way that makes direct
communication between parents and doctor. Nowadays, the only communication in
hospital in medical examination room is not enough because of limiting of time and
delaying reply, so we get rid of their limitation and delay by giving another ways to
communicate. The way that not have time limitation and can be recorded conversation for
recognize later .The pediatrician can comment or give suggestions to the parents and the
parents can also ask the question to the pediatrician directly when they face the problems
about their baby. The last function is baby’s development which is working along with
measurements function. This function will get baby’s weight, height, and head size from
users and retrieve the standard information from WHO Child Growth Standard database.
Users can see the comparative graph and the rank of baby’s development from the
compare two sets of information. In conclusion, Oh! My baby application allows users to
track and monitor their babies like the other baby applications do. But there are some
special functions that offer trustworthy information from clearly source and professional
medical staff verification which are vaccination, medication, doctor visit, send messages,
and baby’s development. These unique functions made our application particularly
special.
