Mobile health, or 'mHealth', is the application of mobile devices, their components and related technologies to healthcare. It is already improving patients' access to treatment and advice. Now, in combination with internet-connected diagnostic devices, it offers novel ways to diagnose, track and control infectious diseases and to improve the efficiency of the health system. Here we examine the promise of these technologies and discuss the challenges in realizing their potential to increase patients' access to testing, aid in their treatment and improve the capability of public health authorities to monitor outbreaks, implement response strategies and assess the impact of interventions across the world.
移动医疗，或“mHealth”，是指将移动设备、其组件和相关技术应用于医疗保健领域。它已经改善了患者获得治疗和建议的机会。现在，与互联网连接的诊断设备相结合，它为诊断、跟踪和控制传染病以及提高卫生系统效率提供了新的途径。在这里，我们研究了这些技术的前景，并讨论了在实现其潜力以增加患者接受检测的机会、帮助治疗以及提高公共卫生当局监测疫情、实施应对策略和评估全球干预措施影响的能力方面所面临的挑战。
