Impact of medical apps on patients and
health
By
discussing the impact of mobile app integration on healthcare system which
never forces us to neglect the core of whole medical process represented in the
patients and their health. As well known human is creature of habits also well
known that it takes twenty one day to build and programme human body over new
habit track. But here erupted question how long it takes to see and touch as
e-health system workers the real direct impact on a patient depending on app
integration between him/her and the system itself?!. Put in mind we did not get
far from mobile medicine just take app integration to meet medical care needs. During the study of impact which that
referring to the level of functionality addresses to appear in the picture to
be must evaluated therefore; in order to evaluate the functionality of the
certain app. First; we should study and well aware from side such kind and
nature of benefits would be offered through to the patients and moreover in
what schemes?.
Data
collection: Patient uses app to
collect necessary data about own self either on demand or after physician
recommendations. Patient communicates regularly with Family doctor through apps
where all of case history reloaded from medical records. Means all of new and
old patient data got to be available under patient tip in case need later
something to be checked about diagnosis, kind of remedy, medical analysis and
last visits, ,,,,,etc. Plus, the present data patient who gets the allowance to
insert certain category of data on time such as diabetic patients whatever
going to happen but needed to be recorded on time or little after end of acute
problem. In other word for patient it represents what is next and what he does
by taking or pouring data inside the app.
Data
Share: App serves as sharing platform between
patient and medical workers in order to prepare, manage, adjust for the next
steps of medications and visits. This is considered perfect for future
considerations and guide for better treatment and improvement.
Data
Evaluation: this is the mutual part of
work between physicians and patients not only to evaluate the work steps and
medical pathways but also measure the progress of procedures over served
receiver. Patient is going to evaluate himself/herself and how far been
beneficiary during the procedure of medication. How the medical system with
apps leaded to get better remedies, understanding, improved progress toward
their lives.
Intervention: this facility is one of the most important and it plays
different roles among medical stakeholders. Being capable to reach the patient
everywhere all the times with on operation stillness give excellent
availability to guide toward and direct the patient to new necessary and urgent
medical interventions behaviourally and through Out-visits
From
Above benefits of main role of the integrated apps referred to the significant
importance of apps in the medical works with touch of exaggeration toward
patient services and demands. Through these benefits could reach patient on any
level wanted without any additional need to waste time in person visits if such
was not urgent carried out. Integrated apps specify mobile medicine to be more
branched in intensity reachable and above all enjoyable among community
citizens who value the matter of time saving and accuracy. I would like to end
this post by feedback,’ I am really interested in feedback loops and
how instant data can change behaviour, I think apps give an opportunity for
patient to have instant access to themselves’…..Jim Cunnar, MD-DuPage
