It provides guidance to help choose reliable mobile health apps that are based on sound scientific evidence while offering advice on how to stay clear of junk science. The book explores the latest developments in mobile health, including the value of blockchain, the emerging growth of remote sensors in chronic patient care, the potential use of Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant as patient bedside assistants, the use of Amazons IoT button in a hospital or nursing home setting, the latest mobile apps being developed in Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and elsewhere, machine learning, and much more.
