This systematic review provides a chronological overview of how mhealth research has evolved with changes in mobile technologies. The review involved a PubMed search complemented by manual searching of all issues of the Journal of Medical Internet Research and Telemedicine Journal and eHealth, from inception to January 2015. Articles reporting the evaluation of mhealth interventions in any patient group for any health-related outcomes were analysed without restrictions on the study design. A total of 3476 publications were obtained from the PubMed search and manual searching of eHealth journals. Analysis was based on an abstract review of 515 (14.8%) original research articles, which fulfilled preset inclusion criteria. Three distinct time periods were identified on the basis of mobile devices used in mhealth research. Personal digital assistants (PDAs) dominated mhealth research in the years before 2007 (17 of 33 articles, 51.5%). Basic and feature phones were the main methods of mhealth intervention from 2007 to 2012 (95 of 193 articles, 49.2%). After 2012, smart devices (smartphones, tablet PCs and iPod touches) were highly used in mhealth research (173 of 289 articles, 59.9%). Despite a growing focus on infectious diseases and maternal and child health in the most recent years, non-communicable conditions continued to overshadow the trend of mhealth research. Overall, mHealth research has evolved over the past decade in terms of the mobile devices employed, health conditions addressed and its purpose. While chronic medical conditions have clearly been the focus of mhealth research, a shift in trends is expected as the application of mhealth interventions spreads to other under-studied areas. Future research should continue to leverage on the advancements and ubiquitous nature of mobile devices to make healthcare accessible to all.

“…The growing importance of virtual systems has resulted in the generation of research interests amongst practitioners and academics in various aspects of virtual systems including its usage, benefits and relevance of the system to individuals, businesses and the community. In this paper smart phones are selected as the focus of research because this device is increasingly emerging as a personal and business tool in terms of data management, email communication and internet access (Daponte, Vito, Picariello, & Riccio, 2013;Chappel & Paliwal, 2014;Zhang, Mao, Rau, Choe, Bela, & Wang, 2013;Ding, Chien, Hung, Lin, Kuo, Hsu, & Chung, 2013). The virtual device is a convergence of regular mobile phone, and personal digital assistants (PDA), and is positioned as a notebook computer (Chang, Chen & Zhou, 2009).…”

While there has been extensive research on the adoption of an innovation in general, research on adoption of a specific innovation such as virtual systems in an emerging economy is relatively scarce. This research addresses this lacuna in the extant literature by empirically investigating the potential drivers impacting on the practice of virtual systems at the individual level in an emerging economy, Bangladesh. The data for the study comprises responses obtained through a cross-sectional survey of individuals using a structured instrument. Data were analyzed using correlation and multiple regression analysis. Findings suggest that a personal initiative is one of the strongest predictors of virtual device adoption, followed by self-fulfillment with innovation and peer pressure. Surprisingly benefits and social pressure did not show any significant relationship with usage. The implications of these findings are highlighted in the paper along with the limits and future potential of research in this area.

“…Furthermore, varying sensors not positively associated with correspondence are joined, for instance, some semiconductors ,such as, Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) contraptions of the cameras to shot images, and GPS for road pilot or to discover likely loss of the phone, accelerometers to distinguish the turn of the monitor. Each one of these sensors allow going the wireless from a contact machine to a device for watching prosperity parameters and highlight of life [31].…”

This paper aims to review the effects of smartphones in the medical field and investigate some of their usages in the healthcare area that can be very helpful in the future. Methodology Conducting a comprehensive literature review on smartphonebased system formed the theoretical foundation of this paper. Findings The model shows that medical related apps, smartphone uses in medical devices, smartphone based health parameters monitoring, and medical survey using smart phones are four example of approaching smartphones to the medical device. Research limitations/implications The research that was used is limited to around 30 papers from relevant conferences within the particular industry of interest. Originality/value This paper shows the approaching of smartphones to the hospitals and health field generally, and how that is important.
