“…As the development of mobile technologies enables to provide various healthcare services through smartphones [53], mobile healthcare applications and their use have been increasing [54,55]. In addition, recent study in healthcare has emphasized the importance of preventive care (i.e., Care [56] emphasized the preventive care as an effective tool for overweight and obesity in children, and Dietz, et al [57] suggested patients in overweight use innovative technology to prevent severe obesity).…”

This paper examines how gamification affects user intention to use mobile healthcare applications (mHealth) and how the effect of gamification works differently according to health status, age, and gender. We use data from a mobile survey conducted by a Korean representative survey agency. We estimate the effect of gamification on user intention to use mobile healthcare applications based on a structural equation model and examine the moderating effects of self-reported health status, age, and gender. We find that gamification is effective in increasing user intention to use mHealth, especially in the healthy and younger groups. These findings suggest that mHealth, with the gamification factor, would encourage healthy (but lack exercise) people as well as unhealthy people to maintain their health status, and thus the mHealth developers need to consider the gamification factor when they develop mHealth services for healthy people.

“…Other examples include the mChip, a device that tests whole blood for HIV using a combined microfluidic and protein-based immunoassay approach [58], and the Ativa Micro Lab (Ativa Medical, St. Paul, MN, USA), which was recently shown to execute a number of distinct blood tests with the use of a single device [59][60][61]. One upcoming technology is Ativa's portable Micro Lab, which has the potential to perform up to 25 distinct blood tests utilizing its various disposable test cards for each test.…”

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) for in vitro diagnostic testing at the point of care

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Point-of-care (POC) device development is a growing field that aims to develop low-cost, rapid, sensitive in-vitro diagnostic testing platforms that are portable, selfcontained, and can be used anywhere -from modern clinics to remote and low resource areas. In this review, surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is discussed as a solution to facilitating the translation of bioanalytical sensing to the POC. The potential for SERS to meet the widely accepted "ASSURED" (Affordable, Sensitive, Specific, Userfriendly, Rapid, Equipment-free, and Deliverable) criterion provided by the World Health Organization is discussed based on recent advances in SERS in vitro assay development. As SERS provides attractive characteristics for multiplexed sensing at low concentration limits with a high degree of specificity, it holds great promise for enhancing current efforts in rapid diagnostic testing. In outlining the progression of SERS techniques over the past years combined with recent developments in smart nanomaterials, high-throughput microfluidics, and low-cost paper diagnostics, an extensive number of new possibilities show potential for translating SERS biosensors to the POC.

“…Indeed, it is feasible for colorimetric readout from a 96-well microtiter plate (MTP) using a CP device (Vashist et al, 2015a, Vashist et al, 2015b and the measurement of a full emission spectrum of any light emitter using a CPbased fluorimeter (Long et al, 2014, Yu et al, 2014. Together with graphene as a sensing interface, the CP-platform doubtlessly provides cost-effective mobile healthcare and personalized medicine with widespread applications for point of care testing (POCT) (Vashist et al, 2015c). The integration of screen printed graphene electrodes (SPGE) with an enhanced active area with a CP based electrical platform is appealing for POCT or doctor's office in remote areas.…”
