Digital technology has the potential to transform mental healthcare by connecting patients, services and health data in new ways. Digital online and mobile applications can offer patients greater access to information and services and enhance clinical management and early intervention through access to real-time patient data. However, substantial gaps exist in the evidence base underlying these technologies. Greater patient and clinician involvement is needed to evaluate digital technologies and ensure they target unmet needs, maintain public trust and improve clinical outcomes.
数字技术有可能通过以新的方式将患者、服务和健康数据连接起来,从而改变精神卫生保健。数字在线和移动应用程序可以使患者更容易获得信息和服务,并通过访问实时患者数据来加强临床管理和早期干预。然而,这些技术的基础证据中存在着很大的差距。需要更多的患者和临床医生参与来评估数字技术,并确保它们针对未满足的需求,维护公众信任并改善临床结果。
