LagnatLink: Post-baha fever triage bago mag-leptospirosis

#Health #Chatbot #SMS & Voice #Triage
Executive Elevator Pitch

"LagnatLink asks 5 flood-exposure questions in Tagalog/Bisaya and tells families whether to go to the RHU now, observe, or call for pickup — cutting deadly delays after habagat wading. Built for the post-flood leptospirosis spikes DOH warns about every August."

Suggested Stack: Chat UI + LLM triage, RHU directory, SMS fallback, Postgres queue.

Weighted total ★ 51.8/100 — ranked #37 of 56. Concept-stage assessment only: no prototype has been built or tested. Scores are comparative, not official PLDT marks.

Problem Statement

After every habagat, thousands wade in floodwater; a week later fevers spike and RHUs overflow. Families don’t know leptospirosis signs (lagnat + sakit ng binti + paninilaw) and wait until dialysis is needed. RHU staff repeat the same 5 questions by phone while severe cases wait.

Proposed Solution

Answer 5 taps: lumusong ba, may sugat, ilang araw ng lagnat, sakit ng binti, ihi/kulay. LLM triage gives color-coded advice (“PULA — pumunta sa RHU ngayon, dalhin ang listahang ito”) plus nearest RHU hours and transport tip. Severe cases jump the RHU queue; mild get home-care checklist and 48h callback reminder via SMS.

Target Market

  • Primary users: Flood-waders, parents, seniors in NCR, Bulacan, Pampanga.
  • B2G: RHUs, barangay health workers, DOH triage lines.

How AI Is Used

  • Symptom reasoner: LLM maps exposure + symptoms to DOH-aligned urgency; rules alone miss Taglish phrasing.
  • Dialect handling: Understands Bisaya/Tagalog fever descriptions.

PLDT / Smart / ePLDT / Rokid Angle

  • Smart: SMS triage for no-data users; voice readout for seniors.
  • ePLDT: Hosts RHU queue dashboard in-country.

Demo Scenario (3 minutes for judges)

  1. Mock case: waded 3 days ago, fever + leg pain; verdict PULA with RHU slip.
  2. Mild case: no wound, 1-day low fever; verdict DILAW with home care.
  3. SMS version returns same advice on basic phone.
  4. RHU queue shows severe first.
  5. Close: “Bago lumala, mag-triage.”

30-Hour Build Plan

Hours Task Role
0–3 DOH leptospirosis guides + RHU mock directory All
3–12 Triage prompts + safety rails AI lead
3–10 Chat + SMS + queue Backend
10–20 Family-first UI Frontend
20–26 Clinician review of outputs All
26–30 Pitch, disclosure PM / Pitch

Suggested stack: Chat UI + LLM triage, RHU directory, SMS fallback, Postgres queue. Public data / APIs: DOH leptospirosis advisories (public guidance).

Risks & Privacy Notes

  • Medical safety: Triage only, never diagnosis; always “see health worker,” low-confidence defaults to PULA. Demo cases synthetic; no real health data into AI tools.
  • Privacy: Health answers minimized, auto-purged in 30 days, consent-first.

AI Use Disclosure (draft)

Uses LLM triage reviewed against DOH guidance. Coding assistants helped with chat UI. All demo outputs clinician-style checked by the team.
