ApiAppS: A Project to Study and Help Practitioners in Recommending mHealth Apps and Devices to Their Patients

The ApiAppS ongoing project aims to provide physicians with a decision support system for the prescription / recommendation of mHealth technologies. We describe the context and the components of the project which includes: 1) a technical part on modelling and implementing the decision support system, and 2) a psychosocial investigation part designed to have a better knowledge of general practitioners (GPs) and patients' expectations, beliefs and practices.
