“…5 However, many email clients and short message services (SMS) send patient health information through an unsecured cellular network, putting patient privacy at risk. 6,7 Many hospitals still require providers to use online paging systems, which are also often not secure, have limited mobile access, and require either a synchronous phone call or face-to-face interaction in order to close the loop on the intended communication. Mobile secure text messaging may help to address these issues by encrypting messages and allowing for rapid, asynchronous two-way (or larger group) exchanges of information that may better fit within the clinical workflow.…”

2019

Objetivo: Analisar a literatura científica a respeito da comunicação por meios eletrônicos entre profissionais de saúde. Método: Revisão integrativa da literatura, realizada nas bases de dados e/ou portais PubMed, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e Cochrane, até agosto de 2018, com descritores combinados, que respondem à pergunta norteadora: “Como ocorre a comunicação eletrônica entre os profissionais de saúde na assistência ao paciente?. Resultados: Seis artigos foram incluídos, publicados de 2011 a 2016, no idioma Inglês. Os recursos foram smartphone, pager e tablet. Os aplicativos utilizados foram WhatsApp, Medigram e Serviço de Mensagens Curtas (SMS). Agilidade, facilidade de uso e auxílio na tomada de decisão foram as vantagens encontradas no uso desse recurso na comunicação dos profissionais; dentre as desvantagens estão ausência de privacidade e de confidencialidade das informações, interrupções na assistência e inabilidade no uso do recurso tecnológico. Conclusão: O uso de aplicativos para troca de mensagens e comunicação interdisciplinar de fato proporciona agilidade na comunicação, mas a confidencialidade desses dados ainda é uma questão a ser tratada. Assim, cabe ao enfermeiro conduzir a comunicação com os demais profissionais, preservando a privacidade do paciente.

“…Potential hurdles to mobile technologies in clinical practice have been described elsewhere 11 and may include disrupted clinical communication, unclear reimbursement models, social disengagement, and breached confidentiality. Similar challenges around patient privacy, cost, and evidence may arise as these apps and devices are increasingly adopted in the educational setting.…”

Mobile health (mHealth) technologies have experienced a recent surge in attention because of their potential to transform the delivery of health care. This enthusiasm is partly due to the near ubiquity of smartphones and tablets among clinicians, as well as to the stream of mobile medical apps and devices being created. While much discussion has been devoted to how these tools will impact the practice of medicine, surprisingly little has been written on the role these technologies will play in medical education. In this commentary the authors describe the opportunities, applications, and challenges of mHealth apps and devices in medical education, and argue that medical schools should make efforts to integrate these technologies into their curricula. By not doing so, medical educators risk producing a generation of clinicians underprepared for the changing realities of medical practice brought on by mobile health technologies.
