The rapid international growth in access to and capabilities of mobile and wireless technologies (mHealth) presents a feasible route towards augmenting traditional mental health care. The interest in mHealth science in psychiatry has been further heightened by the acknowledged potential for these tools to improve individual risk prediction and diagnostic precision, as well as improved treatment options. We have conducted research within smartphone-based monitoring and treatment in patients with bipolar disorder through the last decade. We conclude that the technological capabilities of smartphones are already changing mental health care and is accompanied by an early but promising evidence base. However, further efforts towards strengthening the evidence and implementation must be addressed for digital mental health technologies to truly improve mental health research and treatment in the future.
移动和无线技术(移动医疗)在国际上的普及和功能迅速发展,为增强传统的心理健康护理提供了可行的途径。精神病学对移动医疗科学的兴趣进一步提高,因为人们认识到这些工具有可能提高个体风险预测和诊断精度,并提供更好的治疗选择。在过去十年中,我们一直在进行基于智能手机的监测和治疗双相情感障碍患者的研究。我们的结论是,智能手机的技术功能已经在改变心理健康护理,并伴随着早期但有希望的证据基础。然而,为了使数字心理健康技术真正改善未来的心理健康研究和治疗,必须进一步努力加强证据和实施。
