Mobile phones provide a low cost method of addressing certain health system needs in developing countries. We examined SMS-supported interventions for prevention, surveillance, management and treatment compliance of communicable and non-communicable diseases in developing countries. We searched both peer-reviewed and grey literature reporting the use of SMS messages for disease prevention, surveillance, self-management and compliance in developing countries. A total of 98 applications fulfilled the inclusion criteria (33 prevention, 19 surveillance, 29 disease management and 17 patient compliance applications). In 31 projects, the SMS applications were evaluated. The majority of applications focused on HIV/AIDS and were located in India, South Africa and Kenya. Most used bulk (push) messaging. In general, they were well accepted by the population. The review provides further evidence that mobile phones are an appropriate and promising tool for disease control interventions in developing countries.
手机为发展中国家满足某些卫生系统需求提供了低成本的方法。我们调查了利用短信支持的干预措施，以预防、监测、管理和提高发展中国家传染病和非传染病的治疗顺应性。我们检索了同行评议文献和灰色文献，以报告在发展中国家使用短信消息进行疾病预防、监测、自我管理和顺应性的情况。共有 98 项应用符合纳入标准（33 项预防、19 项监测、29 项疾病管理和 17 项患者顺应性应用）。在 31 个项目中，对 SMS 应用进行了评估。大多数应用都集中在艾滋病毒/艾滋病方面，并且位于印度、南非和肯尼亚。大多数应用使用群发（推送）消息。总的来说，它们受到了民众的广泛认可。本综述进一步证明，手机是发展中国家疾病控制干预的一种合适且有前途的工具。
