"Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting over 10 million people globally, including approximately 92,000 in Sri Lanka. Characterised by symptoms such as tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia, PD requires early detection and continuous monitoring to enhance patient outcomes. Traditional symptom-tracking methods like paper diaries or generic digital tools often lack consistency, accessibility, and suitability for those with motor impairments. TremorAid is a mobile-based application designed to bridge these gaps by enabling PD patients to log symptoms, track tremor progression, and identify environmental triggers. With an intuitive interface tailored to users with motor difficulties, TremorAid promotes autonomy through seamless symptom logging, access to educational resources, and meaningful, data-driven insights. Leveraging artificial intelligence, the app classifies tremors, visualises symptom trends, and provides personalised symptom trajectories for proactive disease management. A key feature is its future symptom analysis module, which forecasts progression based on historical patient data, empowering users and healthcare professionals to make informed decisions about care and treatment adjustments. While TremorAid does not support direct communication with healthcare providers, it enables data sharing via visual dashboards that support clinical evaluations. Future iterations may include wearable device integration and improved predictive models for enhanced monitoring and insight. TremorAid exemplifies how digital health innovations can address the challenges of chronic disease management. By combining AI-driven insights, accessibility, and a patient-centric approach, it contributes meaningfully to advancing personalised care in Parkinson’s disease."
