CardioMPP: a Proposal for Diagnostic Assistance for Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
Abstract
Peripartum Cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare disorder characterized by left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure symptoms. Immediate prevention and treatment reduce the rate of maternal mortality and increase the rate of live births. The CardioMPP project aims at offering a solution that help the diagnosis of CMPP with accuracy, bringing efficiency to the clinical routine of clinical care. For this, goals and stages of Human-Computer Interaction are used to promote efficiency, ease of use and learning of the system proposed for medical specialists.
