Personalized Pregnancy Management Systems (PPMS) enhance maternal healthcare by
leveraging wearable devices and Artificial Intelligence. However, a critical research
gap exists due to the limited data availability from pregnant women using wearable
devices, impacting system reliability. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of
Personalized Pregnancy Management Systems (PPMS) in improving maternal health
and explores enhancements through advanced technologies. Clinical Decision Support
System (CDSS), which assist healthcare providers in decision-making, while Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) networks, designed to analyse time-sequenced health data, form
the core of the proposed approach. The project adopts a structured approach that
integrates LSTM networks for time-series data prediction with CDSS for providing
actionable insights. This hybrid approach enables PPMS on timely warnings for
midwives based on wearable device data. The findings demonstrate that, while PPMS
has significant potential for early danger detection and individualized care, the system’s
performance could be further enhanced by addressing the current limitations with more
extensive wearable device datasets. In summary, the study underscores the need for
more robust data techniques and flexible algorithms to optimize PPMS and ensuring
reliable, individualized treatment to pregnant women across diverse settings.
