The latest survey on the use of mobile devices by doctors in the United States

With the advancement of mobile medical technology, doctors rely more on mobile technology than ever before in the workplace. According to the latest report of the US "Mobile Medical News Network", a recent survey released by Microsoft Corporation found that most clinicians carry one or more mobile devices with them, and the purpose of use is diversified. But no mobile screen device can surpass desktop computers. The online survey involving 402 US doctors was conducted by independent research firm YouGov.

The latest survey found that 50% of doctors use smartphones, 49% use laptops, and 23% use iPads. However, 56% of doctors still use desktop computers. In addition, 55% of doctors still use fax machines, and 27% even use pagers. 39% of doctors still use paper.

Desktop computers are still the main choice for American doctors to share a lot of information: 46% of doctors use desktop computers to communicate with colleagues or experts, 40% of doctors use desktop computers to arrange surgery, and 39% of doctors use desktop computers to communicate with pharmacists. 35% of doctors use a desktop computer to contact patients. Other doctor-patient communication methods include: paper (27%), laptop (26%), and smartphone (19%). 50% of doctors said that they mostly use smartphones when communicating with other colleagues.

When investigators asked doctors to list the benefits of using "mobile technology" (which Microsoft refers to as laptops, iPads, and mobile phones only), 61% of doctors said it would be easier to work with other doctors using mobile technology devices. . 58% of doctors said that with mobile devices, patient-related data can be read anytime, anywhere. 50% of doctors believe that mobile devices make it easier for doctors to record relevant information. 41% of doctors believe that mobile devices have greatly improved the efficiency of doctors.

It is important to be able to easily access information such as patient medical records. Doctors believe that with mobile devices, patient medical records can be increased in many different places. 57% of doctors said that they can add relevant medical records in the ward while checking the room. 24% of doctors write medical records outside the ward, 7% of doctors write medical records in tea rooms or restaurants, and 7% of doctors even write medical records in the car.

According to analysts, if clinical applications are designed to take into account the experience of physicians and patients, mobile devices will be more valuable to medical systems. It truly puts patients in the center of the system, allowing the entire medical team to share information and implement advanced analytical methods. Of course, mobile phones and tablets also need to access highly secure networks, data must be stored in the private cloud, and sensitive data is only authorized to be used by physicians and patients.

After solving the security problem, the next step is the personalized development of the medical plan. The patient's mobile device data is integrated with the medical system, and the wearable devices used by the patient, such as the health bracelet, glucose monitor, and sphygmomanometer, can upload data in a timely manner and alert the patient when there is a risk.
