I have been using an Ericsson Xperia mini 10 for about a year now,
I am quite happy with the use of this smartphone (except maybe for the battery which needs every night a recharge).
As I was browsing Android Market some time ago I stumbled upon a nice app which is called Evernote. With this app you may keep notes for whatever you wish. These notes are synchronized with an online storage that Evernote.com provides; you may access them from anywhere in the world as long as you have access to the net.
I was treating a patient for a venous ulcer. I needed to have a follow up on the healing progress and, with the permission of the patient of course, I took a photo of the ulcer. I used Evernote on mobile for this photo.
Then I realized something important. Since I can use my smart phone for photo or voice or written notes why shouldn’t I use it for patient record keeping?
Since then I had notes with the name of my patients which were used to keep all their medical data on my office’s PC and then I could have these records with me everywhere in my smart phone which would be syncing with the Evernote account. I could add a photo update of my patient with the smart phone or look into patient details while travelling with my smart phone.
Medical record apps cost a lot. Why not use Evernote for free? With the added benefit of mobility of course….
What do you think of this?
Waiting for your comments.
