This document summarizes a study that tested the use of GuideView, a technology for delivering clinical guidelines on mobile devices, with 50 community health workers in Colombia. The study found that using GuideView on cell phones reduced error rates by 35% and increased protocol adherence by 35% compared to using traditional paper-based guidelines. It also decreased mental workload, frustration, and overall workload. Over 90% of participants found GuideView highly acceptable and intended to use it. The study demonstrates that providing interactive, structured clinical guidelines on mobile devices can enhance the performance of community health workers.

Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of knowledge and attitude on hazards of mobile phone uses and prevention among nursing adolescents.
Participants and setting: The objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of education knowledge and attitude on hazards of mobile phone uses and prevention among adolescents. Descriptive design was adopted and the study was conducted in suryapet. 50 adolescents who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were selected by using non-probability convenient sampling technique.
Intervention: Data was collected regarding demographic variable, knowledge and attitude of the adolescents on hazards of mobile phone uses and prevention. The investigator assessed the level of knowledge and attitude of the adolescents by using structured questionnaire and modified three point Likert Scale and by using checklist through one to one teaching by lecture, demonstration, video clippings and verbalization. Structured teaching programme was conducted on the same day on group wise each group consists of 10 members. Data collection was done in Telugu and English the questionnaire was distributed to each adolescents. At the end of the teaching the doubts were cleared. Then 10 minutes was allotted for discussion.
Measurement and findings: The study revealed that 72% of adolescents had good knowledge and 22% had average knowledge. It was found that majority (80%) of adolescents had positive attitude and 14% had negative attitude towards alcoholism. The effectiveness of programme showed high level of significant at p<0.001 level. It showed that structured teaching programme was an effective method to improve the knowledge and attitude there by the avoiding phone usage.
Conclusion: Adolescents tend to adopt negative attitude towards alcoholism only after they have good knowledge regarding hazards of mobile phone uses and prevention. On the basis of the results of the present study, it may be suggested that youth should be aware regarding the complications and consequences of mobile phone usage.

This documents is one of the important to know this because it will help you to become innovate and become a expert in making a ppt so that in your presentation it will be easy to make a ppt so that's why it is important
I suspect the news my smartphone will soon turn into my doctor is exaggerated. While a consultation with my phone will always be easier to arrange than an appointment with my GP, I know for a fact that even the techiest among us still want to see a living, breathing, qualified person when they’re under the weather.
I say this with confidence as this is one of the key findings from the first ever mHealth report by Ruder Finn. The report, based on a survey of more than 1,000 smartphone and tablet users, shows that while there’s an appetite for healthcare applications, and consumers generally love a good app, developers of health applications have not convinced the public of this kind of app’s value to them. The survey’s results show that apps for social media, games and news are the most popular with users of smartphones and tablets; healthy living apps languish in last place in terms of popularity.
The survey, conducted on our behalf by pollster YouGov, reveals some interesting links between type of device and the likelihood of the user to use health & lifestyle apps. The research suggests apps that help take away some of the pain associated with healthcare – booking appointments and getting hold of test results for example – are more popular than those to actually manage health. Our results suggested a great deal of caution around apps to help patients manage long term health conditions – significantly even among those suffering from chronic disease/ health problems. These findings may come as a disappointment to the World Health Organization, which along with The International Telecommunication Union (ITU), is launching an mHealth initiative to help combat noncommunicable diseases, based on the fact that mHealth is cost effective, scalable and sustainable.
In our survey, there is a difference between the generations and the impact that might have on app usage. While 75% of respondents between 25-34 owned a smartphone fewer than 30% in the 55+ category did. Although everyone accesses healthcare it’s usually the oldest among us who use it most. It will be interesting to see how usage patterns change as the gamers and Tweeters of today get older.

Hyper Mode Emergency notification
System application overview
This is a system that is used in business to increase efficiency through tools that ensure communication. The information system is applied to deliver messages to the particular people through their devices successfully around different organizations on a fast moving crisis. In this case, the intended stakeholders are individuals, groups, and society that have running institutions or business out there ("Emergency Notification System Emergency App," 2016). The primary sponsor of the project is a mechatronic engineering professional solutions company that deal with technology and programming.
Requirements specification
The goals and objectives of emergency notification system are;
-The introduction of the new technology to the existing market so as to find other opportunities.
-Reduce the risks of running a business while away.
-Maintain the intact of the owner and the business running. Lessen the cost of regular
-reducing the manual method of notification, therefore, covering overtime expenses.
-maintain security at high degree since it saves time.
- work and develop skills of the individuals who will be involved in the system.
The requirement of hyper mode notification includes high technology automation features, excellent responsive message delivery so as to run convenient sending and receiving alerts. OSHA and NEPA laws should be observed. The system should be able to hold a mass variety of the notifications ("Emergency Notification System Emergency App," 2016).
The functional requirements should be intelligent automation, have advanced parameters, have a detailed audit log, allow mobile messaging, able to maintain two-way communication and be able to track delivery status and also the feedback.
The non-functional are, poor in GIS mapping thus not able to draw the required simple maps. Poor on voice alert and only rely on text speech, poor support of divisions and organizations, unable to help different audiences of language customization.
Assumption of the projects is;
The system notification works through all series of Android kits.
The system is compatible to emails notification and messaging.
The hosting channel will work around 95% correctly. The system can operate at any range of distance, therefore, initiating alerts at any corner.

2. GuideView is a technology for creating and delivering healthcare
advice on multiple platforms especially mobile devices such as
PDAs and cell phones (Windows mobile and iPhones. Others
nearing completion)
It delivers clinical guidelines in an interactive, step-by-step
format that includes rich media: text, voice/audio, images and
video. This reduces cognitive load.
This content (called a guideview) is stored in the cell phone – can
operate in resource-poor environments where cellular network
or internet does not exist.
It is communications-enabled: can automatically make phone
calls (or send emails) to pre-stored phone numbers (or e-mail
addresses) stored in the underlying guideview.
Two main user components: GuideView Author
and GuideView Player(s).
3. Can easily create the guideline flow as interconnected steps, and embed
text, voice (any language), images/video in each step.
Phone Numbers and email addresses can also be included.
4. Displays the guidelines step by
step.
Does not need access to cell
network or internet.
Information provided with
text, audio (voice) images and
video: can be used even when
patients have low literacy
Records execution of each step
along with time stamp in a
history log. Also includes GPS
location of patient encounter
Can automatically make phone
calls or send emails. SMS
messaging being developed.

5. Low availability of physicians and
trained nurses is endemic in many
contexts
◦ Developing countries
◦ Rural areas of developed
countries
Community Health Workers,
barefoot Doctors, promotores de
salud and similar non-physician
care providers are often the primary
(and only) providers of healthcare to
hundreds of millions.
These CHWs are mobile
professionals
However, studies have shown that
Community Health Workers (CHWs)
performance is less than optimal
even with support of paper-based
job-aids
6. Subjects: 50 community health workers in
Medellin, Colombia
Randomized two-groups two-treatment two-period
crossover – each subject is own control
Period 1 Period 2
Group A Used GuideView on cell phone Used Traditional methods
(paper-based guidelines)
Group B Used Traditional methods
Used GuideView on cell phone
(paper-based guidelines)
Time
8. Use of Cell phone GuideView reduces Error rate by
35.15% (p=0.001) as compared to paper materials
GuideView increases protocol adherence by 35%
Decreases mental workload
Decreases frustration
Decreases overall workload
Acceptability and intention to use > 90%
9. Providing interactive, structured rich media clinical
guidelines on cell phones can reduce errors
Performance of Community health Workers can be
enhanced
Very high levels of intention to use and usability
indicate that CHWs will find the technology greatly
acceptable

Editor's Notes
The Research design will follow a randomized crossover with two groups of individuals, two treatments or interventions over two periods of time.This design allows to make every subject its own control and balance for learning after tasks. There are methods to identify the effect of the ordering. Differences among groups are the order that they receive the treatments, or in this particular case the order in which the use the different type of job aid.
