N2  - Gestational diabetes is a type of diabetes aecting temporarily some otherwise healthy pregnant women. Current medical practices do not allow the doctors to monitor such patients as closely as needed. Pervasive Health is a discipline requiring distributed ICT infrastructures to help bridging the gap between the patients and the doctors. In this demo paper we present a complete information system for patient monitoring, including mobile devices for acquiring data from patients and a Web interface for doctors to check the status of their patients. At the core of this information system a multi-agent system monitors the patient health state and triggers alerts to the doctor to raise attention on the specic conditions of a patient. This allows the doctor to react faster to changes of condition of the woman, beneting the baby's and the mother's health.
