The phrase “The greatest wealth is health.” is attributed to Virgil. Maintaining your health is vitally important. No matter how wealthy you are, if you aren’t healthy, you can’t enjoy it. Those in the medical profession always search for ways to simplify their jobs and increase their patients’ health.

We have experienced enormous changes over the past couple of years, especially in the medical treatment we receive and how we interact with doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals. Emergency room staff have to make decisions and provide immediate treatment within a matter of seconds. To help them do this, doctors and other medical specialists have developed new tools and strategies to help them in their day-to-day activities.

New apps can help doctors make faster diagnoses and suggest possible treatment options, reducing the amount of time a doctor spends evaluating a patient’s condition. Healthcare app development is helping medical personnel fight Covid-19 today and providing us the tools to fight future diseases.


100+ companies trust us with their mobile app development needs. Watch the video below to learn why.


 

Five medical apps that most doctors rely on:

1. Radiology Rounds

This app, meant for board-certified radiologists, allows users to get second opinions from other radiologists. The knowledge can help doctors make sound diagnoses with initial recommendations without waiting too long for the official radiologic result. It helps during emergency cases and immediate treatment for patients in critical condition.

This app also allows doctors to update their knowledge on new journal reviews and patient cases, especially Covid-19 related cases. Knowledge sharing and peer-reviewed journals and cases are a big help for the medical profession. 

2. VisualDX

VisualDX is a reference tool designed to help medical professionals diagnose and treat skin issues. Since one of the more unusual symptoms of Covid-19 is a rash, this app has been handy for determining if a rash could be Covid related. 

This app has helped users identify the kind of skin disease and seek guidance on remedying it. The app features reviews, causes, treatment, and advice on treating and curing skin diseases. The app includes journal reviews that keep users up to date with the latest knowledge on skin diseases and treatment.

3. Doximity

This app is a must for every physician and hospital administrator. It features a video call capability that lets doctors and patients communicate online. Patients can schedule an online consultation and connect to their doctor through call or video call. This app has become one of the most in-demand software during the pandemic for people needing to communicate with their physicians.

As doctors and hospitals have attempted to reduce the number of in-person appointments, virtual medicine has increased. Doctors and hospital administrators have opted for online consultation for those restricted with movement and mild cases.

All data is encrypted, and security measures protect calls and video from malicious hacking. The app complies with HIPAA regulations, ensuring the safekeeping of private information. The app offers a 40-minute video call as a free trial.

4. Epocrates

Epocrates is an app that provides valuable information about pharmaceuticals, prescribed and over-the-counter. It assists doctors in looking for the right prescription medicine and checking its availability in the market. The app includes the description, dosage guidelines for adults and kids, adverse reactions, side effects, etc.

Epocrates app can also identify the pill or medicine and provide information about it. The app has updated information on medications and their availability, including those used to treat Covid-19.

5. MDCalc

MDCalc helps doctors deliver precise and accurate computations on dosage, grading, and interpretation of laboratory results. It is also helpful for medical technologists, radiologic technologists, and ER surgeons; even nurses and hospital administrators benefit greatly. This app eases the workload of the medical team by verifying official laboratory results. Patients and their families can benefit from this app, as well.

Other Health Care Apps

Many popular apps use advanced artificial intelligence and technology for Computer Vision, ECG heart check, blood sugar level, and urine sample scan. They’re even apps checking heart rate, blood pressure, respiration, sleep pattern, steps walked, and physical movement. Another software technology is the Sensor, which provides contactless analysis of sleep, respiration, movement, and other health factors.

Apps are integrated with wearables and smart devices to provide seamless service to users regarding their health, fitness, and overall well-being. More healthcare apps are integrated with machine learning to empower robots to disinfect Covid-19 facilities.

Even more advanced is robotic surgery using machine learning and deep technology. Machine learning is the idea that machines should learn and adapt through experience. Deep technology refers to new businesses involved in innovative high-tech engineering.

Fitness vs. Healthcare

While apps associated with wearable fitness devices dominate the Apple and Google stores, the apps mentioned above are specifically designed to meet the needs of medical professionals.

Fitness apps are more into exercise and wellness, such as tracking heart rate and movement. Some apps can help monitor calorie intake, plan an exercise regime, help with yoga or meditation, and act as a mental health guide. These can be downloaded and used instantly. There are plenty of free healthcare apps available, most of which you can upgrade for a fee.

On the other hand, medical apps are the ones that doctors and hospital administrators need to conduct a thorough analysis of your condition. These apps help monitor your blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen level, blood sugar level, urine sample, and much more. Medical apps can also be research programs that provide professional knowledge or specialized mental health services.

Custom Apps

The medical apps have communication features that let you connect with patients and fellows for consultation and collaboration. Having a custom healthcare or medical app for your hospital or practice is an excellent decision to make this 2022. A custom app allows doctors and hospital administrators to make informed and responsible decisions every day.

Furthermore, a custom app enables the hospital or clinic to integrate processes seamlessly, giving patients the best medical attention possible. A customized app facilitates communication between doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, patients, and family members.

To help you start with a healthcare app that meets the needs of your hospital or clinic, contact Digital Authority Partners today.
