摘要

有广泛证据表明,卫生知识普及程度降低与医疗结果不佳的风险增加之间存在关联。与受过充分医学教育的患者相比,缺乏医学教育的患者急诊室费用明显更高,住院率高达两倍。由于慢性病负担增加和进行性慢性疾病的管理日益复杂,在老龄化人口中,缺乏医学知识尤为重要。为了解决这个问题,已经开发了各种智能手机和平板电脑医疗应用程序,以提高患者的健康素养和监测慢性疾病。我们建议有必要检查老年患者的技术素养,他们最有可能从这些应用中受益。

Computer Literacy in the Elderly: A Survey Examining Real World Usability of Medical Software
There is widespread evidence of an association between reduced health literacy and an increased risk of poor medical outcome. Patients with poor medical education experience significantly higher emergency room costs and up to double the hospital admission rates compared to patients with sufficient medical education. Lack of medical literacy is particularly important in the ageing population, due to increased burden of chronic illness and the increasingly complex management of progressive chronic conditions. To address this, various smartphone and tablet medical applications have been developed to improve patient health literacy and monitor chronic illnesses. We propose the need to examine the technological literacy of elderly patients, who are most likely to benefit from these applications.
