Designing an evidence-based mobile health decision aid for the management of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) in low-resourced settings

Background Pre-eclampsia is one of the leading causes of maternal death and morbidity in low-resourced countries due to delays in case identification and a shortage of health workers trained to manage the disorder. The objective of the PIERS on the Move (POM) project was to provide mid-level health workers with an evidence-based and low-cost decision aid to improve diagnosis and management of pre-eclampsia, to improve outcomes.
