EHRs and Mobile Computer Cards have brought technology to the bedside of every man. There are quality interactions at the bedside, and each patient has now the opportunity to connect with his physician in this way. By connecting patients properly in their own caring management system, mobile technology has enhanced the quality of care and its outcomes.
Implications of Theory/Research
The
implication of theories and researches in mobile-health technologies is the
need and demand of this era. M-Health Technologies has a great concern with
behavioral change theories. According to some analyst, the studies which use
theories in its intervention is more influential and beneficial. In the given
case, the purpose is to change the behavior of the patient with the intervention.
These
kinds of theories helping to identify the distinguished and targeted behaviors
of patients. These targeted behaviors alter specific behavior change
strategies. These techniques or strategies are then used by the patient for
self-care (Bhavnani et al, 2016).
There are almost 75 controlled
trials that are identified by researchers in health interventions that are
based on mobile technology. For a change in health behaviors through this
technology, twenty-six trials are analyzed. Others analyzed disease management,
and these were comparably low-quality trials.
This
analysis and implication of research gave mixed evidence for the benefits of
health intervention delivery to consumers that are using mobile technologies in
health care. The theories and researches show that all these interventions
based on mobile technology are made for design, create or originate a change in
the behavior patterns of patients.
Besides, patients can improve in their chronic diseases by self-management. For more clinical benefits, researches or theories tells that there is a need for more optimization for further successful and efficient trials in this case (O’Conner,2018).
Implications of Practice/Management
The
implications of practices in theory or management in researches in health care
mobile technologies are being proved day by day. There are many transformations
and innovations in clinical practices has seen. Medical software applications
are on many platforms that lead to frequent growth in the field of the mobile
health care system.
There
is now access to and record maintenance of health cases, consulting and
communications, information collecting and reference, patient monitoring and
management, medical training and education, and decision making in clinical
matters (Bhavnani et al, 2016).
As behavioral theories are connected
with greatly connected with changing healthcare systems through m-technology,
its practical implications are also worthy of knowing. Patients are given
different electronic devices to know their responses after using them. Different
likewise trials in this way have shown a report of modest benefits in case of
clinical diagnosis and outcomes of supporting management.
Moreover,
SMS reminders in m-technology are intervened for a health care system that
keeps on giving reminders for healthcare appointments. Its implementation is
improving gradually. In malaria treatment, for example, m-technology has shown
many best guidelines, if a view of recent literature is done.
Furthermore,
other implementations in different diseases are also being done in the long
term by keeping in mind the behavioral theories and related researches
(O’Conner, 2018).
Conclusion
To conclude, behavioral theories are the significant ones to know the benefits of the mobile health care system and change in the response of patients through it. Many trials are done in this case are researches are made to know the impacts and outcomes of this theory. It has shown a lot of change in the behavior of patients due to the excellent implementation of this theory. Patients are now able to manage and take care of themselves in the best possible way by the use of the M-technology system, alongside their beds.
