Abstract

This work addresses the interdisciplinary field between Computer Science, Engineering, Medicine, and Health. We will study and analyze various computational methods and technologies for the development of applications and software intended for the monitoring and management of health conditions. In particular, we will examine different operating systems (MS-WINDOWS, Apple IOS, LINUX), system development tools (e.g., PHP, JAVA, DOT NET, Slack, Azure, NODE-JS, JIRA, etc.), and databases (MYSQL, ORACLE, SQL Server). Following these technology-focused studies, we will shift our focus to the application area in MEDICINE. Specifically, we will investigate health conditions related to CHRONIC BRONCHITIS. After gaining an understanding of the key aspects associated with this diagnosis, such as signs, symptoms, management, monitoring, and the use of blood pressure measurement devices, we will design a model and develop an application software tailored to this health condition.
