Description
Dehydration is a common and preventable complication for oncology patients, especially those undergoing chemotherapy and radiation. Side effects such as nausea, fatigue, and loss of appetite make it difficult for patients to maintain adequate fluid intake, contributing to avoidable discomfort and potential treatment disruptions. This capstone project presents Onco-Boost, a mobile hydration monitoring application designed to help adult oncology patients track daily fluid intake, recognize their intake patterns, and stay engaged in daily self-care between clinic visits. Built with React Native and Expo, and backed by Firebase for authentication and cloud data storage. Onco-Boost translates clinical hydration guidance and research into an intuitive, patient-friendly interface. The app features a streamlined home page for quick-tap beverage logging with 4 beverage options, a history page that displays previous entries and daily totals, and a profile page where users can set or adjust basic information. The system is designed with simple data models, role-appropriate access, and secure storage to support future integration with clinical workflows if desired. Onco-Boost demonstrates how a focused, data-driven mobile tool can support oncology patients in maintaining hydration and may reduce preventable complications related to low fluid intake.
