Despite the purported advantages and potential efficacy of mHealth interventions to promote wellness in children, adolescents, and young adults, it is not clear what areas have been explored and the challenges reported in the biomedical literature.
We conducted a scoping review of publications between 2015 and 2019.
We identified 54 papers that met our inclusion criteria. Studies were conducted in 21 countries and ranged in size from six to 9851 participants (median: 184). A total of 41% of studies enrolled adolescents only (n = 19). Of the seven types of mHealth interventions identified, apps were the most common intervention (59%; n = 32) evaluated and 44% of the studies evaluated two or more interventions. The most common topic of the studies reviewed was sexual and reproductive health (24%; n = 13).
Most pediatric mHealth intervention studies are conducted in adolescents in large part, and sexual and reproductive health is the most commonly studied topic. With the easy and widespread accessibility to smartphone technology, the use of mobile apps for wellness interventions will likely continue to expand to other wellness topics.
尽管移动健康干预措施在促进儿童、青少年和年轻人健康方面据称具有优势和潜在功效，但尚不清楚生物医学文献中探索了哪些领域以及报告了哪些挑战。
我们对2015年至2019年期间的出版物进行了范围综述。
我们确定了54篇符合纳入标准的论文。研究在21个国家进行，规模从6名到9851名参与者不等（中位数：184）。共有41%的研究仅纳入青少年（n = 19）。在确定的七种移动健康干预类型中，应用程序是评估最常见的干预措施（59%；n = 32），44%的研究评估了两种或更多种干预措施。所审查研究中最常见的主题是性与生殖健康（24%；n = 13）。
大多数儿科移动健康干预研究主要在青少年中进行，性与生殖健康是研究最普遍的主题。随着智能手机技术的便捷和广泛普及，使用移动应用程序进行健康干预可能会继续扩展到其他健康主题。
