We have been promised a revolution in healthcare with the adoption of digital technologies. So where are we with digital transformation and what are the opportunities and barriers particularly in the practice of medical problems in pregnancy?
Objectives:

  *   To understand the speed of growth of digital health applications worldwide
  *   To understand drivers and barriers for digital adoption
  *   To use a case study to illustrate the process (trials and tribulations) of developing a digital health application
  *   To discuss how we can better utilize data captured as part of routine clinical care to gain insights that impact pregnancy outcome and health after pregnancy?
