Nearly half of US adults have hypertension, and three in four cases are not well-controlled. Due to structural barriers, underserved communities face greater burdens of disease, less consistent management, and worse outcomes. Mobile technology presents an opportunity to reduce financial, geographic, and workforce barriers, but little data currently support its use in populations with digital disparities. A recent article by Khoong et al. systematically reviews the literature to quantify outcomes for these populations and provide a roadmap toward more inclusive mobile health strategies.

面向不同人群的移动医疗技术:挑战与机遇

近一半的美国成年人患有高血压,四分之三的病例没有得到很好的控制。由于结构性障碍,服务不足的社区面临更大的疾病负担、更不一致的管理和更糟糕的结果。移动技术提供了减少财务、地理和劳动力障碍的机会,但目前很少有数据支持将其用于存在数字差异的人群。Khoong 等人最近发表的一篇文章。系统地回顾了文献,以量化这些人群的结果,并为实现更具包容性的移动医疗战略提供路线图。
