    Gan et al. Scientific Phone Apps and Mobile Devices (2016) 2:8 Scientific Phone Apps DOI 10.1186/s41070-016-0012-7 and Mobile Devices REVIEW Open Access An overview of clinically and healthcare related apps in Google and Apple app stores: connecting patients, drugs, and clinicians Samuel Ken-En Gan1,2*, Cornelius Koshy1, Phi-Vu Nguyen1 and Yu-Xuan Haw1 Abstract Successful clinical outcomes involve both clinician and patient factors such as good decision making, accurate diagnosis, patient compliance, effective monitoring of the condition, and accurate interpretation of clinical results. With a general trend in healthcare towards personalized medicine, the smartphone holds great potential to play a role in personalized care and aid in the above mentioned factors. Through the use of apps, the increasingly powerful smartphone may be a useful aid in the healthcare and clinical industries. This review surveys the currently available apps in Google and Apple app stores that are purposed for aiding healthcare and clinical use, and discusses how they may also help transform the smartphone in a medically relevant device.

  • WHITE PAPER Embracing Apple Ios in Healthcare
    WHITE PAPER Embracing Apple iOS in Healthcare Futura Mobility | April 2015 Introduction Clinicians, especially doctors, are pressuring IT departments to adopt the use of iOS devices in the healthcare environment. It’s a clear reflection of the staggering consumer demand for Apple® products. In addition, Ap- ple is proactively entering the Enterprise channel as well as piloting its HealthKit app in over 60 percent of the top 23 U.S. hospitals. According to a Reuters report, Apple has an “incredible team of experts in health and fitness” and is “talking to medical institutions, healthcare and industry experts on ways to deliver its services.” Apple is coming for healthcare and it’s moving swiftly. How prepared is your IT department? Historically, IT departments have been slow to embrace Apple iOS devices, often preferring Android devices and the long-familiar Windows® environment. To many IT decision-makers, Android offers a lower cost and quicker custom app deployment, whether through the GooglePlay store or through the hospital’s mobile de- vice management (MDM). Yet, despite Apple’s upfront requirements—whether cost for the device or approval for custom apps in the Apple App Store™—it offers more long-term support. For example, iPhones® are in rotation longer than most Android devices, with a three-year-old iPhone model being offered as a free option through some cell phone carriers. Apps also have a long life in the App Store. If a start-up company launches a new app in the store today and then goes out of business tomorrow, that company’s app will still be supported in the App Store for up to three years.
