Abstract

Objective The Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) approach has promoted the usage of personal mobile devices for organizational and carrier purposes. Applying a BYOD approach might provide various challenges for healthcare organizations. This study endeavored to identify the attributes of hospitals readiness in applying BYOD and to rank these attributes in order to develop appropriate policies for dealing with challenges. Materials and methods This study is an explanatory sequential mixed method design that was carried out in two qualitative and quantitative phases for identifying the BYOD attributes and ranking them, respectively. Semi-structured interviews with 15 experts in the BYOD field were performed through in the qualitative phase. Purposive and snowball sampling approaches were used to choose experts. Thematic analysis was used to analyze qualitative data. The identified attributes were ranked in a quantitative phase by asking 10 experts using fuzzy hierarchical analysis. Results Six main themes and 23 subthemes were identified. The findings of hierarchical analysis showed that ethical considerations, management principles, human resources, legislation considerations, cost, and technical infrastructure as the six main themes, respectively, have priority in hospitals readiness for BYOD. Conclusion Addressing the highlighted priorities, from ethical considerations to technical infrastructure, in the formulation and implementation of formal programs and policies by health managers and authorities will prepare hospitals for the use of BYOD while decreasing the challenges associated with it.
识别和排序医院准备申请的属性自带设备:一项解释性的序贯混合研究
目的携带自己的设备(BYOD)方法促进了个人移动设备用于组织和运营目的。应用BYOD方法可能会给医疗保健组织带来各种挑战。本研究试图确定医院在应用BYOD时准备就绪的属性,并对这些属性进行排序,以制定应对挑战的适当政策。材料和方法本研究是一种解释性的顺序混合方法设计,分定性和定量两个阶段进行,分别用于识别BYOD属性并对其进行排名。在定性阶段,对BYOD领域的15名专家进行了半结构化访谈。采用有目的和滚雪球抽样的方法来选择专家。专题分析用于分析定性数据。通过使用模糊层次分析询问10名专家,在定量阶段对识别出的属性进行排名。结果确定了6个主题和23个子主题。层次分析结果表明,伦理考虑、管理原则、人力资源、立法考虑、成本和技术基础设施分别是医院应对BYOD的六个主要主题。结论在卫生管理人员和当局制定和实施正式计划和政策时,解决从伦理考虑到技术基础设施等突出的优先事项,将使医院为使用BYOD做好准备,同时减少与之相关的挑战。
