移动的电话应用程序(app)为提供量身定制的人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)和性传播疾病(STD)预防和护理提供了一个新的平台。识别和评估目前可用的与艾滋病毒和其他性病的预防和护理相关的移动的手机应用程序。我们搜索了Apple iTunes和Android Google Play商店中与HIV/STD相关的应用程序,排除了专门针对行业、提供商和研究人员的应用程序。每个合格的应用程序都被下载,测试和评估用户评级和功能以及艾滋病毒预防和护理的6个广泛内容领域:艾滋病毒/性病知识,减少风险/安全性行为,避孕套宣传,艾滋病毒/性病检测信息,艾滋病毒阳性者的资源,以及重点人群。截至2012年5月的搜索查询确定了1937个应用程序。其中,55个独特的应用程序符合纳入标准(Android 12个,iPhone 29个,两个平台14个)。在这些应用程序中,71%提供有关艾滋病毒/性传播疾病的信息,36%提供艾滋病毒/性传播疾病检测信息或资源,29%包括有关安全套使用或帮助寻找安全套的信息,24%宣传安全性行为。只有6个应用程序(11%)涵盖了所有这4个预防领域。8个应用程序(15%)专门为艾滋病毒/性病阳性者提供工具或资源。10个应用程序包含一系列性取向的信息,9个应用程序似乎是为种族/民族多样化的受众设计的,15个应用程序具有互动组件。应用程序下载频率较低(平均下载次数为100-500次),评价也不高(平均客户评价为3.7,满分为5星)。大多数可用的艾滋病毒/性病应用程序都未能吸引用户的注意力和积极的评价。公共卫生从业人员应与应用程序开发人员合作,纳入循证干预措施的要素,以降低风险,并提高应用程序的包容性和互动性。
Mobile phone applications (apps) provide a new platform for delivering tailored human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and sexually transmitted disease (STD) prevention and care. To identify and evaluate currently available mobile phone apps related to the prevention and care of HIV and other STDs. We searched the Apple iTunes and Android Google Play stores for HIV/STD-related apps, excluding apps that exclusively targeted industry, providers, and researchers. Each eligible app was downloaded, tested, and assessed for user ratings and functionality as well as 6 broad content areas of HIV prevention and care: HIV/STD disease knowledge, risk reduction/safer sex, condom promotion, HIV/STD testing information, resources for HIV-positive persons, and focus on key populations. Search queries up to May 2012 identified 1937 apps. Of these, 55 unique apps met the inclusion criteria (12 for Android, 29 for iPhone, and 14 for both platforms). Among these apps, 71% provided disease information about HIV/STDs, 36% provided HIV/STD testing information or resources, 29% included information about condom use or assistance locating condoms, and 24% promoted safer sex. Only 6 apps (11%) covered all 4 of these prevention areas. Eight apps (15%) provided tools or resources specifically for HIV/STD positive persons. Ten apps included information for a range of sexual orientations, 9 apps appeared to be designed for racially/ethnically diverse audiences, and 15 apps featured interactive components. Apps were infrequently downloaded (median 100-500 downloads) and not highly rated (average customer rating 3.7 out of 5 stars). Most available HIV/STD apps have failed to attract user attention and positive reviews. Public health practitioners should work with app developers to incorporate elements of evidence-based interventions for risk reduction and improve app inclusiveness and interactivity.
