近年来，针对普通公众、旨在协助诊断和治疗精神疾病或促进一般心理健康的软件的可用性大大增加。对更传统的医疗保健提供者和医疗保健相关设备的监管是由法规、监管指南和普通法先例制定的。相比之下，应用程序（apps）提出了新的监管挑战。本次审查审查了精神病学移动心理健康应用程序的现行监管指南，以及精神病学移动心理健康领域判例法的现状。
In recent years, the availability of software that is targeted toward the general public and designed to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of mental illness or to promote general mental health has expanded greatly. Regulation of more traditional health care providers and health care-associated devices is well established by statute, regulatory guidelines, and common law precedents. Applications (apps), in contrast, pose a novel regulatory challenge. This review examines the current regulatory guidelines for psychiatric mobile mental health apps, as well as the current state of case law in the psychiatric mobile mental health realm.
