Abstract
Clinical assessment scales for specific medical subareas include domain knowledge that may not be of general awareness among practitioners, hindering the adoption of best practices. In this context, we propose a pocket guide for comprehensive geriatric assessment as a mobile application. The GeriatricHelper is an Android mHealth application developed under an iterative, User-Centered Design approach. Feedback from a broad set of users including domain experts has been obtained throughout and a functional prototype is currently being tested in a Portuguese hospital, allowing for any clinician to apply the otherwise experts-limited geriatric assessment.
