Development and usability of a mobile artificial intelligence platform for the management of childhood developmental disorders based on PHRs
<b>Introduction:</b> Emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), offer the potential to personalize healthcare for pediatric developmental disorders, but their development presents challenges. <b>Methods:</b> This study introduces IVORY, a mobile AI platform for managing personal health records (PHRs) in children with developmental disorders. IVORY integrates advanced optical character recognition (OCR)-based text recognition models optimized for diverse medical document types and template-matching algorithms, ensuring standardized data processing. The primary features include digitizing medical records, symptom interpretation, and AI-driven health recommendations. <b>Results:</b> Using pretrained OCR algorithms with 126 diverse medical report types, the platform achieved an OCR success rate of 81%. Input data include fMRI interpretations, psychological assessments, and laboratory findings, whereas outputs offer percentile-based insights and treatment recommendations. Caregivers (3.44 ± 0.67) and professionals (3.50 ± 0.63) highly rated the platform for usability. <b>Conclusions:</b> Despite OCR limitations for low-resolution data, IVORY has the potential to enhance data consolidation, accuracy, and scalability in personalized pediatric healthcare.
