mHealth Definition• mHealth

– The practice of medical and public health supported by mobile devices

– Sub-segment of e-Health

– The use of mobile devices in collecting community and clinical health data; delivery of healthcare information to practitioners, researchers, and patients; and, real-time monitoring of patient vital signs, and direct provision of care (Telemedicine)

mHealth gets into the actual practice of medicine, which is one of the reasons that it has been embraced by the World Health

Organization as a way to manage healthcare in third-world countries.

Telemedicine Definition• Telemedicine

– An application of clinical medicine where medical information is transferred through interactive audiovisual media for the purpose of consulting, and sometimes remote medical procedures or examinations

– Includes two concepts• Real time (synchronous) and store-and-forward

• Home Health (asynchronous)

– Mobile devices may or may not be used• Mobile telehealth: provision of medicine via a mobile unit

• Services may involve mobile technology used by a mobile vehicle associated to a medical facility

Telemedicine includes some mobility and is often mentioned within the context of the mobile market. However it involves the

connection of at least two points to either perform or monitor patient care.

Mobile Content Definition• Referential healthcare-related content

• May include:– Disease monographs

– Drug-related content

– Order sets

– Protocols

– Social networking content

• Electronic Medical Record(EMR)/Electronic Health Record(EHR)

• The ability to combine referential and patient-related data creates a mobile solution

The capability for content to be delivered over a mobile device combined with interaction with patient-related data represents a

current market in which various companies participate.

Mobile Solutions for Interactive Data Management Definition• Mobile Solutions for Interactive Data Management

– Solutions that permit users to achieve mobile access to data from Hospital Information Systems (HIS) using at least one data presentation format

– Solutions must possess a data access layer that obtains and deconstructs information from disparate HIS systems, and repackages the information around a patient object

– Provides a mobility platform for interactive data retrieval and transmission

This is the core space where STM content providers may be interested in serving.

STM Participants: Early Signs of Differentiation• “Large healthcare publishers such as Hearst Business Media, Reed

Elsevier, Thomson Reuters, and Wolters Kluwer have a portfolio of products that support clinicians, healthcare providers, and payers along the healthcare workflow. These products are still evolving as the technologies mature.”

• “The main components include traditional reference and journal content; teaching and training applications (particularly for nursing).”

• “The most highly competitive area is in clinical decision support tools, where order sets and drug reference databases are the most common product.”

• “There will be increased focus on content integration with work-flow needs and just-in-time delivery driving competitive features and pricing. As much of the evidence as possible should be embedded in content-based software.”

The Concept and The Potential

• Today:– All relevant information derived from a patient encounter

may be documented and transmitted to a mobile device

– However, previous information documented in various medical records will not be readily available until there is additional progress creating EHRs (Electronic Health Records)

– The available data may be combined with value-added referential content delivered to a mobile device at the point of care

• Tomorrow:– Even more information will become consistently available

at the point of care and for use during ongoing treatment

Technical Issues

• Technical Options – Web-based approach

• Quickest approach

• Not a complete solution (no off-line capability; can use various device features)

– Vendor Specific (You pick the winner or sink the cost)• Works within capabilities of specific device/platform

• Some platforms have limitations (Apple does not permit Flash and 3G usage; it avoids apps that impact network resources)

– Hybrid Digital Platform• Permits service to multiple device platforms

• The issue is choosing the right platform

• Recommended Reading: “Building Applications for the Mobile Web, Best Practices,” at Thomson Reuters Legal, 10/28/10

25

Challenges Moving Forward

• The path to the highest quality solution sets will require additional progress in electronic health records (EHRs)– Interoperability challenges

– Data standardization challenges

– Adoption challenges (perhaps overcome in the US by Meaningful Use requirements)

• We are at an early phase that could be the beginning of a path to even greater benefits based upon the ability to access and utilize a very high volume of existing data that will become available as EHRs are fully adapted for use in mobile devices.

U.S. Physician EHR Adoption Forecasts

*EHR = any EHR with basic or advanced capabilities

Conclusion

• Mobility is already providing important services to healthcare professionals

• Moving forward, there should be increasing adoption of EHRs by 2016

• The combination of widespread EHRs plus more advanced wireless device features should have a profound effect on the level of information that will be available and useful at the point of care

• Future business models will need to account for higher amounts of data available at the point of care, along with the software investment required to access data from various systems
