4. Our patients want mHealth:
95% have SMS-capable cellphone
45% have smartphones (rapidly growing)
67% use social media (rapidly growing)
90% interested in tech-based platform to improve their health

7. Once enrolled, people use it!
- mHealth interventions have been shown to be
acceptable and result in high engagement even
in the highest risk groups
• adolescents
• Spanish-speaking diabetics seen in the ED
• schizophrenics
17. Where is the evidence?
Are they safe and
private for my patient?
How does it affect our
workflow?
How do I know they’re
good?
Do they exist for my OS?
Do they exist for my
disease?
She doesn’t even look at my
data!

and deployment of effective, evidence based
digital health tools in the acute care setting.”

Notas do Editor
So why mobile health? First, it is possible: according to a survey that I completed at my institution in 2011,… 90% are interested in a tech-based platform to improve their health. Rapid growth is seen in ownership of tablets, smartphones, and social media use as well.
Second, they WANT digital health tools.
Finally, the are LOOKING for them. According to Susannah Fox’s data, of adult American cellphone users:
About 1/3 look up health-related info on their phone
About 1/10 have downloaded an app or use texting programs for help.
So whether we want it or not, we have to figure out how to use it
Importantly, this is also one of the few areas with increased funding to innovate.
And of course – very importantly – we need it. I don’t need to go over all the challenges facing the acute care environment. But you all know that we serve as the entry point for the health care system, right? The vast majority of unplanned admissions come through us. We see a higher-than-average percent of “high risk” patients. Although we are only responsible for ~5% of costs, we determine the course of care. And, of course, we are being held to increasingly rigorous standards around quality, bouncebacks, and length of stay. We are in NEED Of something to help us.
Behavioral health… Recidivism… Costs… Entry point for healthcare system… Time pressures…
OK, so what currently exists? How can it help us?
Well, existing mobile heatlh tools get divided into a few “boxes.” The 1st is monitoring & surveillance, either on a patient level or on a population level. This can be things like tracking the frequency of tweets about certain conditions; or can involve tracking patients’ vital signs, and reporting this to doctors; or can involve in-the-moment monitoring, such as the AliveCor device. This is also stuff like what Anand Shah, one of our former residents, is doing with “big data” – using patients’ own data to predict who will do poorly, and then targeting resources to them.
The 2nd big category is actual delivery of care. This ranges from the program on the left – from Mayo Clinic – to helping patients to triage themselves, to actual online care delivery.
3rd is the idea of using digital health to improve patient care through patient engagement. As many of you know, this is the realm in which I spend most of my time – working on apps and text-messaging programs to improve pts’ own coping skills and awareness of their own health conditions. This is an area with a fair amount of evidence….
In theory, something like THIS will be possible for the future:
What are some concerns that you have?
But when I talk about the possibilities with my colleagues and patients, I hear some recurrent themes in their questions. We don’t have answers for all of these questions.
Lack of applicability to patients’ needs.
Privacy concerns….. For instance, 72% of popular medical apps presented medium-to-high risk with regard to personal privacy (lower risk if paid app vs free)
Disclosure to 3rd parties without consent
No ability to opt out
Tracking info that you haven’t consented for
Okay, what’s another way to look at this?
Do we want to be a dinosaur, or the leaders? Do we want to be NYT, or HuffPo?
Free/low-cost: > 16,000 patient-facing health-related apps in both iTunes and Google Play stores
< 30% of apps downloaded more than 50 times
< 10% used more than once
Out of ~20,000 consumer-facing health apps, less than 20% of them have ever been downloaded. Just five apps account for 15 person of all health app downloads
The minority of apps out there are based on “evidence.”
Even fewer are used more than once! ONLY 20% CAPTURE USER-ENTERED DATA
Other papers: Suffoletto re: alcohol, antibiotic adherence, TBI
Other papers: Suffoletto re: alcohol, antibiotic adherence, TBI
What do I do with all this data?
If it’s linked to my EHR, how does it stay compliant with HIPAA?
For each of these case studies, I want you to consider these major areas of ethical quandary, and to come up with solutions that will make you as PROVIDERS feel that it’s ethically ok.
In theory, something like THIS will be possible for the future:
