Smartphone medical applications have a major role to play in women’s health with their roles being very broad, ranging from improving health behaviours to undertaking personalised tests.
Objective(s).
Using Medline, Web of Knowledge, and the PRISMA guidelines 15 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were identified, with mobile interventions being tested on 1603 females, in relation to key aspects of health.
Using a similar systematic approach an iPhone database search identified 47 applications (apps) developed to improve women’s health.
Findings.
Ten RCTs used text messaging or app interventions to support weight loss, with significant improvements being observed in eight studies.
For other aspects of women’s health RCTs are needed to determine possible health benefits.
iPhone store data analysis identified that a substantial number of women’s health apps did not have star ratings or feedback comments (68 and 49 per cent, resp.), raising concerns about their validity.
Conclusion.
Peer-review systems, supporting statements of evidence, or certification standards would be beneficial in maintaining the quality and credibility of future health-focused apps.
Patient groups should also ideally be involved in the development and testing of mobile medical apps.
