Being Well started with the initiation of three threads in an app to solve the challenges.
Covid-19 Patients:
This thread doesn't confirm the patient is suffering from Covid-19 or not. But this thread surveys the users of our app with certain questions that may be about travel history, some common symptoms of Covid-19 and related questions.After the survey we can predict if the patients have the similar symptoms of Covid-19 and can alert the user if he needs the Covid_19 checkup or not. We will use the result of the surveys conducted by various universities ,health agencies,government as the reference to compare the survey data provided by users using the machine learning algorithms. And display the result if he is likely to get infected by Covid-19 or not.
Regular Checkup Patients:
The data provided from Asia and Pacific region,we know that the long term patients are not getting enough health facilities. But we are assured that cases are prevailed in developed countries and the cases are even worse in the developing countries as many patients are blind folded by the media. For regular checkup patients and also for emergencies (other than Covid-19),we have introduced an online token system with QR code maintaining social distancing. Tokens will be scanned in the hospital updating the application server for reducing redundancy. The users are free to choose any hospital of their choice and get token for a meeting in the hospital from home. Tokens are generated by the application in accordance with the hospitals providing time schedule for the visit. Next patients will be notified after billing is done by the previous patient, avoiding the risk factors for Covid-19.
Other Patients:
During Covid-19 pandemic many people are afraid of going to hospitals if they are suffering. There are many people with symptoms that may persist as a long term disease if no any safety measures taken. For this case we have provided the contacts of health pursuing people and health workers of that locality so there is no need to visit hospital for medications. We have included on duty or off duty information of health workers. The local medical persons will be available for help that will certainly avoid many diseases that would prevail if no any health measures are taken.
Due to Covid-19 there are many chances that people don't go to hospital and many people can home the diseases which will affect the SDG 3 "Health and Well being". So ensure the goal to succeed we have made our efforts to build this type of application.
During Covid_19 pandemic we are locked into our houses as government impose lock down. So during this we are always scared thinking for food, medications and many more. Once we got the chance to present our idea we are eager to present in Covid space app challenge.
We tried finding the open space data that can help our project and found some of them from NASA, WHO, google and some other sites.
The data from the NASA SEDAC is used to know the number of patients in each city and country providing notifications to the users about the situation. The mobility report is also used to know the movement of people in any city or town to know whether people are going to hospitals or not.
This is our application.
Being Well
Our app "Being Well" attempts to minimize the health issues during the lock down period. As many patients are being neglected ,by the help of our app we can easily contact required health administrations and personnel.
Features
After entering, app contains 3 options which are as follows:
1. Test for Covid-19:
Under this thread, we can contact professional authorities for testing Covid19. A form opens up here as well asking for Name, Id, Cause and Address.A list of clinics and hospitals are shown where the test can be conducted. The administration can be contacted as wished by the user.
2. Regular Patients:
This option is for those who are having health issues apart from the doubt of Covid19. A form opens which asks for Name, ID and Cause of Concern. On clicking submit button, a list of hospitals appear from which we can decide the administration to be contacted. On clicking the submit button without any text entered, we have a pop up bar saying "Invalid Entry".
3. COMMUNITY HEALTH:
For any circumstances in which trained professionals are to be contacted, a list of available health workers are shown. The required worker can be contacted as wished by the user.The data entry is stored in two files user.txt and usern.txt.
About
The coding was solely done using Pycharm IDE using kivy library. The project consists of 6 files. Among them 3 are python files, 2 are text files and one is Kivy file.
The contents are:
1. main.py
2. database.py
3. databasen.py
4. user.txt
5. usern.txt
6. my.kv
The "main.py" contains the definition of all the screens and their respective methods. All the screens are navigated using ScreenManager. The "database.py" and "databasen.py" consists of methods of handling data of regular and test for Covid-19 patients. Similarly, "user.txt" and "usern.txt" stores the data of regular patients and patients who tested for Covid-19 respectively. Finally, "my.kv" file contains all the codes for styling of buttons and positioning to text. It also gives permission to different screens by the calling of methods.
If you are having issues, please let us know.
