Mobile (Point of Care) Computing Kathleen Carlson, MS, AHIP Jacque Doyle, MS, AHIP, FMLA Robert Marlow, MD MA Howard Silverman, MD, MS Thursday, June 21 ~ 9:30am – 11:00pm
Learning Objectives • Review commonly used mobile medical information resources. • Compare and contrast the attributes of DOEs (Disease Oriented Evidence) and POEMS (Patient Oriented Evidence that Matters). • Review the content of various mobile decision support tools. • Demonstrate the ability to utilize mobile decision support/point of care tools in a variety of clinical scenarios.
Mobile Devices Jacque Doyle & Kathleen Carlson
What type of phone do you own? • iPhone • Android • Blackberry • Other Go to SPOARS http://ars.medicine.arizona.edu
What tablet do you own? • I do not own a tablet • iPad • Kindle or Kindle Fire • Nook • Android Go to SPOARS http://ars.medicine.arizona.edu
Apps versus WebsitesWhat’s the difference? Why does it matter? • An APP is a software program for your mobile phone or tablet that must be downloaded. May be hardware specific. May require personal subscription. • A website consists of browser-based HTML pages that are linked together and accessed over the Internet. Usually is universally accessible.
Apps and Websites • “By 2020 the specificity of apps vs. Web vs. anything else will begin to fade.” • “We won’t care whether it’s an app, Web app, or other devoted software as long as it gets the task performed seamlessly.” Sam Punnett, President of FAD Research - http://www.pewinternet.org/Reports/2012/Future-of-Apps-and-Web/Main-Findings/User-interface-paradigm.aspx
What laptop do you primarily use? • Mac or Mac with Windows • Windows PC • Android • Other Go to SPOARS http://ars.medicine.arizona.edu
Mobile Apps Robert Marlow, MD MA
Point of Care Functions • 2007 study of third-year Family Medicine residents who had clinical questions as they were seeing patients got answers from: • 44% attending physicians • 23% consulting mobile device • 20% books Acad Med 2007; 82(3):298-303

Mobile Computing: Assessing Relevance & Validity Robert Marlow, MD MA
It’s not how much you know, it’s how fast you can find the answer.®
Usefulness Equation = Usefulness Relevance x Validity Work
Assessing Relevance • Will this information have a direct bearing on the health of my patient? • Is the population studied similar to my patient (or population)? • Would it change my practice?
Applicability to Practice DOEs(disease oriented evidence) • Increases understanding of disease • How a “disease works” The information requires assuming POEMs (patient oriented evidence that matters) • Evidence that patients care about • Crucial to clinicians The information requires knowing
POEM:Patient-Oriented Evidence that Matters What matters to patients and their doctors? • Morbidity (Fractures, MI) • Mortality • $ Example: HCTZ to treat hypertension lowers stroke, MI
Assessing Validity • Pay attention to the Methods • Is there fatal bias? • Do not jump immediately to the results or conclusion without first assessing validity
Case studies and practice • You are in clinic and a family of four comes in to see you for an office visit • We will deal with one family member at a time • Use some of the tools we’ve mentioned
P.G. is the dad • 50 yo white male • Hx hypertension: BP 145/84 • Nonsmoker • FHx early CAD • Central obesity • Fondness for doughnuts and beer
His labs • Total Cholesterol 236 • HDL 42 • LDL 167 • Triglycerides 385 Does he need treatment for hyperlipidemia? • Yes • No Go to SPOARS for survey http://ars.medicine.arizona.edu
If “Yes,” what treatment would you advise? • Diet, exercise, and weight management only for now • Nicotinic acid • Statin • Fibrate Go to SPOARS for survey http://ars.medicine.arizona.edu
