Abstract
Chronic diseases and conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, etc., are major public health problems worldwide. Self-management is an essential process for improving care of patients with chronic diseases. This chapter illustrates the generation of a conceptual model through a research survey on a self-management system of chronic diseases and classification of the functions in each system. Then, the chapter discusses knowledge and system components in the prospects of services realized by case study of self-management support systems for type-2 diabetic patients. The related design issues and the service components of the support systems illustrate practical examples of the application of service science in the medical field.
