Abstract:
|
Trip Doctor(R), a Smartphone-based app monitoring system, was
developed to detect infections among travelers in real-time. For
testing, 106 participants were recruited (62.2% male, mean age
36 years (SD = 11)). Majority of trips were for tourism and main
destinations were in South East Asia. Mean travel duration was
14 days (SD = 10). Diarrhea was the most frequently reported
symptom (15.5%). The system demonstrated adequate usability and
is ready to be used on a larger scale. |
