Why do cell phones cause problems in medical facilities? Health care apps provide quick and easy access to medical information that might help a patient make a decision to seek medical attention. Discuss how information received through an app should be discussed with a doctor.
Homework Answers
Ans) Cell phones might cause problem in health care centres. This is because they might create sound pollution by ringing every now and then which might disturb the patients. Also sometimes cell phones may be a device for bacterial contamination when used with dirty unwashed hands and this might lead to disease propogation.
Cell phones may interfere with critical care equipment such as ventilators and external pacemakers.
Many patients may even take pictures if they have cameras in cell phone which is not right.
-It is important to discuss information recieved by app with the doctor because these apps are only for medical assistance. You might be searching the syptoms and conditions that you know about but what aboyt the symptoms that you are not recognizing.Also sometimes we do not take into account all our body conditions. Hence assistance of doctor is important.

Can you guys make comments on this post I think its a great idea that Apple created an application on smart phones to have patients medical records handy. One of my reasons is because it is time efficient since patients have easy access to schedule appointments, request medications, or view their records or lab results. With this technology it is easier for a patient to schedule an appointment or request an appointment rather than calling the health center or having...
