The number of mobile Medicare applications has grown exponentially over the past few years, and it is expected to continue to grow soon. The use of health apps promises to be a good way to improve patient care and make work easier for professional. However, some cases of malfunction or misdiagnosis and treatment recommendations have been reported. Regulation is essential to protect users and support product development. So, to suppress the malfunctions we present a pharmacopeia Medicare app in which the customer can see the original profile and the specification of any stimulant with its useful information. This inculcates a clean process which procures a less chance of misapplication of the drugs. These mobile medical app companies have improved access to clinical references and point of care tools. However, it is difficult to identify mobile medical apps that are suitable for the practice of pharmacy. This app is entirely based on our experience in accrediting websites with health-related content and journal.

Objective: To examine how Canadian academic medical libraries are supporting mobile apps, what apps are currently being provided by these libraries, and what types of promotion are being used. Methods: A survey of the library websites for the 17 medical schools in Canada was completed. For each library website surveyed, the medical apps listed on the website, any services mentioned through this medium, and any type of app promotion events were noted. When Facebook and Twitter accounts were evident, the tweets were searched and the past two years of Facebook posts scanned for mention of medical apps or mobile services/events. Results: All seventeen academic medical libraries had lists of mobile medical apps with a large range in the number of medical relevant apps (average=31, median= 23). A total of 275 different apps were noted and the apps covered a wide range of subjects. Five of the 14 Facebook accounts scanned had posts about medical apps in the past two years while 11 of the 15 Twitter accounts had tweets about medical apps. Social media was only one of the many promotional methods noted. Outside of the app lists and mobile resources guides, Canadian academic medical libraries are providing workshops, presentations, and drop-in sessions for mobile medical apps. Conclusion: While librarians cannot simply compare mobile services and resources between academic medical libraries without factoring in a number of other circumstances, librarians can learn from mobile resources strategies employed at other libraries, such as using research guides to increase medical app literacy.

Unfortunately, many users are unaware of the risks and limits that arise from the use of health-related and medical apps in a medical context. Often, problems arise from insufficient, misleading, or false information, but they also arise from errors within the app or inappropriate hardware that is used for running the app. Provided information is often inadequate to enable users to assess whether a medical or health app is reliable and safe. Laws and regulations that are meant to provide consumer safety (for patients and medical professionals alike) only apply to a limited number of apps with a specific medical purpose. For non-regulated apps used in a health context, there are various projects and initiatives, for example relating to app certification, but not all of these provide the information they collect about an app in a comprehensible and verifiable manner. The app synopsis presented in this chapter aims at alleviating the situation. The authors propose that manufacturers and developers use its clear structure for providing users with information about an app, ideally in a place where they commonly look (e.g. the app stores).

The mobile medical application (M-medical APP) can optimize medical service process and reduce health management costs for users, which has become an important complementary form of traditional medical services. To assist users including patients choose the ideal M-medical APP, we proposed a novel multiple attribute group decision making algorithm based on group compromise framework, which need not determine the weight of decision-maker. The algorithm utilized an uncertain multiplicative linguistic variable to measure the individual original preference to express the real evaluation information as much as possible. The attribute weight was calculated by maximizing the differences among alternatives. It determined the individual alternatives ranking according to the net flow of each alternative. By solved the 0–1 optimal model with the objective of minimizing the differences between individual ranking, the ultimate group compromise ranking was obtained. Then we took 10 well-known M-medical APPs in Chinese as an example, we summarized service categories provided for users and constructed the assessment system consisting of 8 indexes considering the service quality users are concerned with. Finally, the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method and the consistency of ranking results were verified, through comparing the group ranking results of 3 similar algorithms. The experiments show that group compromise ranking is sensitive to attribute weight.

Aptamers, a group of nucleic acids which can specifically bind to a target molecule, have drawn extensive interest over the past few decades. For analytics, aptamers represent a viable alternative to gold-standard antibodies due to their oligonucleic nature combined with advantageous properties, including higher stability in harsh environments and longer shelf-life. Indeed, over the last decade, aptamers have been used in numerous bioanalytical assays and in various point-of-care testing (POCT) platforms. The latter allows for rapid on-site testing and can be performed outside a laboratory by unskilled labor. Aptamer technology for POCT is not limited just to medical diagnostics; it can be used for a range of applications, including environmental monitoring and quality control. In this review, we critically examine the use of aptamers in POCT with an emphasis on their advantages and limitations. We also examine the recent success of aptasensor technology and how these findings pave the way for the analysis of small molecules in POCT and other health-related applications. Finally, the current major limitations of aptamers are discussed, and possible approaches for overcoming these challenges are presented.

BACKGROUND The successful operation of medical mobile applications primarily depends on the extent to which users are fully motivated to adopt it. OBJECTIVE Therefore, the primary purpose of this study is to investigate the factors influencing mobile medical application usage intentions. METHODS This study applied the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2) to build a comprehensive model that explains the usage intentions of mobile medical apps. RESULTS Research findings confirm the validity of the UTAUT2 in explaining the intention of using mobile medical apps in the context of mobile medical services. Also, the results focus on the enhancement in the role of the other, rather contextual attributes of the IT/IS environment (i.e., personal involvement and personal innovativeness). CONCLUSIONS By conducting surveys, mobile medical app designers can know that personal involvement and personal innovativeness leads to influences on the effectiveness of corporate marketing efforts about using mobile medical apps.

A patient diagnosed with dengue fever was recently treated at a hospital in California. This rare case raises the concern that dengue fever may become a larger threat in the future for the contiguous United States, which is not currently considered endemic for the disease. Over the past decade, there has been an increase in the number of cases; therefore, dengue fever must be given greater consideration in the differential diagnosis, especially with a patient travel history to endemic parts of the world. This case report examines the management of a patient presenting with dengue fever and demonstrates that continued vigilance, prompt testing, and patient education can improve patient care and decrease disease prevalence in the future.

BACKGROUND Dermatological health applications can address a range of pathologies from melanoma to eczema and have the potential to significantly impact the health of the user. This paper details a systematic review of standards addressing dermatological health apps and their implication on the safe use of such apps. OBJECTIVE To survey the literature to ascertain the state of evidence to address this review’s primary research question: “What are the implications of standards to ensure safe use of dermatological health apps?” METHODS Six databases were systematically searched for records relevant to the questions using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). The Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT) checklist was used to analyse records when applicable, and when not a standardised checklist was used. Database searches identified 2193 records, of which 67 records were ultimately included for analysis. RESULTS A total of 67 records were identified, and these could be organised into 6 themes. These 6 themes included studies investigating the accuracy of apps, general standards, articles, reviews of current dermatological apps, recommendations and reviews of mobile medical apps and standards. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review showed that there is a large variance in the quality of dermatological apps available to the public and the standards and guidelines currently in place are insufficient in eliminating all inaccuracies. Standards and guidelines surrounding the algorithms often used in dermatological apps as well as guidance on effective use of existing apps could potentially allow for more effective dermatological health apps.
