Mobile Triage Applications: A Systematic Review in Literature and Play Store

Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to review and analysis of the state of the art regarding triage applications (apps) for health emergencies. This research is based on a systematic review of the literature in scientific databases from 2010 to early 2021, following a prism methodology. In addition, a Google Play Store search of the triage apps found in the literature was performed for further evaluation. A total of 26 relevant papers were obtained for this study, of which 13 apps were identified. After search… Show more

“…These findings replicated previous systematic reviews experiences on app-based research, in the broader healthcare sector. For example, Montano and collaborators [ 74 ] reviewed 26 papers on mobile triage applications, of which only 13 (50%) could be identified on the basis of the paper, and only two were still accessible via Google Play Store at the time the review was conducted. In addition to the lack of information to find the tools, the unresponsiveness of the authors posed yet another challenge to accessibility.…”

“…This telemedicine interface is being explored [ 69 ], with varying results depending on the medical area where they are implemented [ 70 , 71 , 72 ]. Many current descriptions of mobile applications for trauma patients focus on triaging patients in disaster situations, as described in a recent review by Montano et al [ 73 , 74 ]. Among the mobile apps that have been evaluated and described, there are some for prehospital evaluation and others that aid in patient stratification while in the ED.…”
