RADAR-base: Major Depressive Disorder and Epilepsy Case Studies

Emerging mobile health (mHealth) and eHealth technology could provide opportunities for remote monitoring and interventions for people with mental health and neurological disorders. RADAR-base is a modern mHealth data collection platform built around Confluent and Apache Kafka. Here we report progress on studies into two brain disorders: major depressive disorder and epilepsy. For depression an ambulatory study is being conducted with patients recruited to three sites and for epilepsy an in-hospital study is being carried out at two sites. Initial results show smartphones and wearable devices have potential to improve care for patients with depression and epilepsy.
