在过去十年中，新技术的引入改变了我们的文化、商业、通信和教育的许多方面。这项研究调查了医学教师和学习者如何在医学教育和实践中使用iPhone等移动的计算设备，以及他们如何设想未来使用这些设备。对医学生、住院医生和教职员工进行了半结构化访谈，以检查参与者对医学教育和实践中当前和未来使用移动的计算设备的态度。采用专题方法总结所表达的想法和概念，并开展在线调查。使用混合方法来整合定性和定量结果。2011年，加拿大一所大型医学院的医学生、住院医生和教职员工。采访了18名参与者（10名学生，7名居民和1名教师）。只有213名参与者回应了在线调查（76名学生，65名居民和41名教职员工）。超过85%的参与者报告使用移动计算设备。所描述的移动的设备的主要用途涉及信息管理、通信和时间管理。所确定的优点是便携性、灵活性、多媒体访问和快速查找信息的能力。查明的挑战包括：肤浅的学习，不知道如何找到好的学习资源，分心，不适当的使用和对访问和隐私的关注。医学生和医生都表示，这些器械在医学教育和实践中的使用将在未来增加。这项新技术具有增强学习和患者护理的潜力，但也存在与其使用相关的潜在问题。重要的是，医学院和医疗保健组织的领导层必须在这个快速发展的领域制定议程，以最大限度地发挥这项强大的新技术的优势，同时避免意外后果。
The last decade has seen the introduction of new technology which has transformed many aspects of our culture, commerce, communication and education. This study examined how medical teachers and learners are using mobile computing devices such as the iPhone in medical education and practice, and how they envision them being used in the future. Semistructured interviews were conducted with medical students, residents and faculty to examine participants’ attitudes about the current and future use of mobile computing devices in medical education and practice. A thematic approach was used to summarise ideas and concepts expressed, and to develop an online survey. A mixed methods approach was used to integrate qualitative and quantitative findings. Medical students, residents and faculty at a large Canadian medical school in 2011. Interviews were conducted with 18 participants (10 students, 7 residents and 1 faculty member). Only 213 participants responded to the online survey (76 students, 65 residents and 41 faculty members). Over 85% of participants reported using a mobile-computing device. The main uses described for mobile devices related to information management, communication and time management. Advantages identified were portability, flexibility, access to multimedia and the ability to look up information quickly. Challenges identified included: superficial learning, not understanding how to find good learning resources, distraction, inappropriate use and concerns about access and privacy. Both medical students and physicians expressed the view that the use of these devices in medical education and practice will increase in the future. This new technology offers the potential to enhance learning and patient care, but also has potential problems associated with its use. It is important for leadership in medical schools and healthcare organisations to set the agenda in this rapidly developing area to maximise the benefits of this powerful new technology while avoiding unintended consequences.
