Optimizing self-management in bipolar disorder by correlating mood and behavioural patterns using mHealth technology.

This research is directed towards the promotion and optimization of blended self-management training in bipolar disorder (BD) via mobile health (mHealth) prospective monitoring. A new prototype of such self-management mobile application has recently been designed in the research group and will be used in the project. A Database containing (inter-)episodic self-management parameters, such as triggers, prodromes and self-management strategies of the patients will be constructed.
