Mobile Viewing and Self-Management of Patient's Electronic Health Records (EHRs) with MyHealthCloud

Mobile computing has become one of the most dominant computer use paradigms and an essential part of the modern healthcare environment. As these applications become more sophisticated, a trend will inevitably develop towards providing comprehensive support for healthcare practitioners. In this paper, we propose a novel mobile healthcare platform for the visualization and management of patients' medical reports, named MyHealthCloud. The research offers a new patient driven approach to store, retrieve and share medical reports for patients and doctors. This new platform maximizes the benefits of mobile health technology by providing a better way for healthcare professionals to share information with their patients efficiently and effectively. This research empirically validates the usability of the proposed approach and clearly demonstrates its usefulness, providing details of the empirical study conducted with end-users in a real environment at various hospitals.
