Abstract

The use of mobile phones technologies for improved healthcare and wellbeing has increased dramatically in recent years, especially in the Arabian Gulf region. However, very few studies to date have addressed the use of smart mobile health technologies for smoking cessation in the region. This paper proposes a smart mobile health solution tailored to assist with smoking cessation in the Arabian Gulf, and in particular in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). It presents a framework for a smartphone-based system designed according to the requirements analyzed from a specific survey conducted to identify the smoker needs and medical staff needs identified from the interviews from the KSA user's perspective. The outcome of this survey suggests that such system architecture needs to include the m-health platform, decision support system based on data mining techniques to provide an optimised information management process to the smokers in the KSA community.

沙特阿拉伯王国使用智能移动电话技术的戒烟框架(Smoke Mind)

近年来，特别是在阿拉伯海湾地区，利用移动电话技术改善保健和福祉的情况急剧增加。然而，迄今为止很少有研究涉及在该区域使用智能移动医疗技术进行戒烟。本文提出了一种智能移动健康解决方案，专门用于协助阿拉伯湾，特别是沙特阿拉伯王国(KSA)的戒烟。本文提出了一个基于智能手机的系统框架，该系统是根据从KSA用户的角度进行的具体调查分析的需求来设计的，以确定吸烟者的需求和从访谈中确定的医务人员的需求。这项调查的结果表明，这样的系统架构需要包括移动健康平台，基于数据挖掘技术的决策支持系统，为KSA社区的吸烟者提供优化的信息管理过程。
