Abstract

This research was carried out against the background of the still highmortality rates of mothers and babies after giving birth. This is a special problem for Indonesia and other countries with the same experience. To overcome the high mortality rates for pregnant women and infants, a web-based application and SMS gateway solution is needed. This application monitors the health of pregnant women and infants in remote villages, far from adequate health services. Pregnant women can be helped through mobile services accessed easily via the web and SMS. Through information technology, the limitations of time and space can be overcome. The application was trialled at a health service centre in Kepanjen Malang, East Java. It can be integrated more widely using the internet. An experiment over five months turned out to be quite encouraging as a tool for collecting data on pregnant women, both those who did not experience health problems and those with certain health problems in their pregnancy. A web-based application and SMS gateway are quite capable of helping medical personnel, as they collect accurate data on the distribution of unhealthy pregnant women in the Kepanjen region. Given these encouraging results locally, this application can be applied elsewhere to improve health services for pregnant women and infants. The next task of researchers is to disseminate information at each health service centre in the East Java region Key words: Warning, maternal health, SMS gateway, expectants mothers’ health
