Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, face numerous challenges. Constant pain, the need for a strict diet, and regular medical check-ups create significant psychological and physical discomfort, which reduces adherence to treatment and significantly impacts patients' quality of life.
Solution
We developed a chatbot to help patients with IBD improve their quality of life and maintain adherence to therapy. The chatbot includes over 15 consultations with specialists, such as psychologists, nutritionists, gynecologists, and other doctors, as well as organizes access to necessary tests and online diaries to track conditions. In addition, using artificial intelligence, the bot suggests tasks to increase physical activity, manage stress, and normalize sleep. Gamification elements were added: users received rewards for completing tasks, which helped maintain motivation. Patients can customize reminders, view statistics, and the AI-driven knowledge base with microlearning elements helps them better understand their health and treatment.
