omen with previous gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus or
metabolic syndrome in their later life. Infants of mothers with GDM are more susceptible to stillbirth and more serious health
concerns. Although the production environment has become increasingly friendly, current practices lack integrated care that aim to
prevent chronic diseases for pregnant women who were at a high risk of GDM. The purpose of this study was to integrate GDM health
care knowledge, self-awareness of health, self-monitoring of health status (i.e., recording weight and measurement data of metabolic
syndrome risk factors and monitoring changes in data trends); participation in discussions or browsing forums; healthy lifestyle
guidance and counseling; reminder systems, a token system of earning points in exchange for prizes to create a reliable and effective
e-health management platform (eHMP). The research was conducted according to ADDIE teaching model, conducted in the five
stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation in order to explore the effectiveness of the developed eHMP.
This e-health management platform is reliable and valid (expert validity: content validity index=0.973-0.991; user-evaluated content
validity: content validity index=1.00; and test-retest reliability: intra-class correlation=0.805-0.957). The eHMP was developed using
cross-disciplinary collaboration among nursing staff, medical practitioners, and information engineers in order to prevent the risk
of women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus developing metabolic syndrome. The eHMP provides tailored health education
content for pregnant women in a timely manner and compiles historical assessment data that may be referenced by nursing staff while
providing health consultations and by physicians while delivering diagnoses and treatments.
