How Smartphones Are Revolutionising Health Care [INFOGRAPHIC ...

?The electronic management of health care through mobile devices? or, more simply, ?mHealth? is rapidly on the rise and a recent study shows just how much of a positive impact it is having. From everyday apps that assist with general health and fitness to more medically-purposed ones that can monitor blood pressure, the presence of mHealth is ever-growing and the benefits are starting to show.

The infographic was put together by AlliedHealthWorld.com using information from a variety of sources. mHealth comprises any mobile technology that can help you to improve your well-being, that includes running apps, calorie counters, diet advisers and plenty more. Without repeating too much of what is in the infographic below, it was found that the spread of mHealth was far and wide, with many users not even realising that they were part of it. The industry has grown so much, so quickly that even the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has gotten involved and last year began an approval process to ensure health care claims were in fact legitimate.

Check out the infographic for the full breakdown and let us know in the comments what your stance is on mHealth, and whether you would use it at all.
