In Malaysia, adoption of the mobile application for smartphones and tablet computers are growing in number and are actively applied in healthcare. However, limited studies were found looking at mHealth app that is focusing on Malaysia context. This study aims to examine the current mHealth app that is available in Malaysia. This study also seeks to rank the pricing of top paid apps from two major platforms, Apple iOS, and Android PlayStore. In mid-2016, the authors overviewed the Medical app and Health and Fitness category from two dominant platforms; Apple iOS and Android Play Store. The only app that was related to human healthcare, described in Bahasa Malaysia or English, was examined. Most app that is designed specifically for Malaysia is informational apps, which provide information on healthcare and medical information. The study also reveals that most consumers in Malaysia are ready and are willing to pay for mHealth app. Majority of app price is between RM10.01 to RM25.

AbstractObjective:This study aimed to compare an Apple iOS mobile operating system application for audiological evaluation with conventional audiometry, and to determine its accuracy and reliability in the initial evaluation of hearing loss.Methods:The study comprised 32 patients (16 females) diagnosed with hearing loss. The patients were first evaluated with conventional audiometry and the degree of hearing loss was recorded. Then they underwent a smartphone-based hearing test and the data were compared using Cohen's kappa analysis.Results:Patients' mean age was 53.59 ± 18.01 years (range, 19–85 years). The mobile phone audiometry results for 39 of the 64 ears were fully compatible with the conventional audiometry results. There was a statistically significant concordant relationship between the two sets of audiometry results (p < 0.05).Conclusion:Ear Trumpet version 1.0.2 is a compact and simple mobile application on the Apple iPhone 5 that can measure hearing loss with reliable results.

Amidst the new COVID-19 pandemic, there is a need for a reliable medical tool to monitor patients’ vital conditions with clinical information continuity. This tool is essential for timely detection of the risk of the patient’s clinical state deterioration throughout all the stages of medical assistance.  The objective is to assess results of the NEWS2 score implementation at the in-patient stage of medical care.Methods. 183,732 scores of the NEWS2 score in 10,290 hospitalized patients were analyzed.  All the assessed results of the NEWS2 score were retrospectively analyzed. The NEWS2 score results were added to the United Medical Information and Analytical System of Moscow (EMIAS) database through the NEWS2 mobile application. The researchers analyzed the descriptive statistics of the score; the prognostic significance of NEWS2 in the prediction of the disease outcome was assessed as well as the accuracy of the used methods. Results. As the result of the research, deviations from standard methods in the application of the NEWS2 score were outlined, which allowed the researchers to develop the corrective measures.  The received data confirmed that interval assessment by the NEWS2 score and the trend analysis were important when making clinical and organizational decisions. Specific parameters of the score use during the COVID-19 pandemic were outlined, which helped to adjust the in-hospital procedures for clinical decision-making process, routing, and the continuity of all stages of medical assistance was established. Conclusion. The use of the NEWS2 score in medical practice makes it possible to predict the risks of clinical deterioration in the patient's condition, conduct bedside monitoring of therapy effectiveness, and optimize in-hospital routing. However, to ensure the validity of the score, it is necessary to plan activities for the personnel training and motivation, as well as to monitor careful adherence to the protocol.

Orthopedic And Trauma Surgery

BACKGROUND Smartphones have become an essential part of everyday life and it is undeniable that apps offer enormous opportunities for dealing with future challenges in public health. Nevertheless, the exact patient requirements for medical apps in the field of orthopedic and trauma surgery are currently unknown. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to define target groups, evaluate patient requirements, potentials and pitfalls regarding medical apps specific for orthopedic and trauma surgery. METHODS A prospective multicenter study was conducted between August 2018 and December 2019 at a German trauma center and 3 trauma surgery/orthopedic practices. A paper-based survey consisting of 15 questions evaluated information regarding smartphone and medical app usage behavior. In addition, suggested app functions were rated using Likert scales. Descriptive statistics and binary log-binomial regression was performed. RESULTS A total of 1,055 questionnaires were included in the statistical analysis. A total of 89.57 % owned a smartphone. Ownership probability decreased with every decade of life and increased with a higher level of education. Medical information was obtained via mobile web access by 62.65% of participants; this correlated similarly to ownership in regard to age and educational level. Only 11.18% reported previous medical app usage; 3.50% received an app recommendation from a physician. More than half (56.30%) were unwilling to pay for a medical app. The highest rated app functions were information about medication, behavioral guidelines and medical record archival. An improved treatment experience through suggested app features was reported by 71.18%. CONCLUSIONS Mobile devices are a widely used source of information for medical content, but only a minority reports previous medical app usage. The main target group for medical apps in orthopedic and trauma surgery tends to be younger, what harbours the danger of excluding fringe groups especially the elderly. Education seems to be one of the most important pull factors to use smartphones or a mobile web connection to obtain health information. Medical apps, primarily focusing on an optimized patient education and flow of information, therefore seem to have the potential to support patients in health issues, at least in their subjective perception. For future target group-oriented app developments, further evidences on clinical application, feasibility, and acceptance of app usage are necessary, in order to avoid patient endangerment and limit socio-economic costs.

The proliferation of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers are the newest paradigm shift occurring in the field of computing and engineering education. This paper presents an empirical and comparative evaluation of mobile application development platforms and tools as experienced by five undergraduate students who spent the summer of 2012 learning about and developing mobile apps at the Centre for Mobile Education and Research (CMER.CA), under the supervision of the first author. The students have worked with a wide variety of mobile platforms and tools, and hence the paper provides insights and recommendations into selecting mobile platform(s) to consider using in the Computing curricula.
