Abstract

Use of devices like smartphones, iPads and computers, which enable children to utilize mobile technologies, increases day by day. This study has been conducted to compile original articles evaluating the smartphone applications built for paediatrics. During the study, PubMed database was searched. Within the scope of the literature survey, ten articles published with the aim of maintaining and promoting childrens’ health with mobile applications were reviewed. It is safe to state that the use of mobile health applications on children is a new and limited concept. Although applications and research are limited, the common result of these shows that the use of mobile health applications by professionals, children and nurses has a promising and contributing potential for child health.

Özet

Mobil teknolojilerin çocuklar tarafından kullanımını sağlayan telefon, iPad, bilgisayarlar gün geçtikçe artmaktadır. Çocukların akıllı telefon uygulamalarındaki sağlık verilerine erişim, sağlık profesyonellerinin (hekim, hemşire, diyetisyen gibi) izlem ve tedavi sonuçları konusunda katkı sağlayabilir. Araştırma; çocuk sağlığı ve hastalıkları ile ilgili yapılmış akıllı telefon uygulamalarını ele alan orijinal makaleleri incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Literatür taramasında, Pubmed veri tabanı kullanılmıştır. Literatür taraması kapsamında mobil uygulamalarla çocuk sağlığını korumayı ve geliştirmeyi hedefleyen yayınlanmış on makale incelenmiştir. Mobil sağlık uygulamalarının çocuk sağlığı üzerine kullanımının yeni ve sınırlı olduğu söylenebilir. Uygulamalar ve yürütülen araştırmalar sınırlı olmakla birlikte, bunların ortak sonucu mobil sağlık uygulamalarının profesyoneller, çocuklar ve hemşireler tarafından kullanılmasının çocuk sağlığı için umut verici ve katkı sağlama potansiyeli olduğunu göstermektedir.
