随着智能手机、平板电脑和无线医疗设备等移动设备以及支持这些设备使用的无线网络的使用增加，人们对数据安全和完整性产生了新的担忧。需要符合1996年《标准健康保险流通与责任法案》（HIPAA）的电子数据安全，允许无处不在地使用移动医疗技术。缺乏标准化的数据安全来确保隐私，允许互操作性，并最大限度地发挥移动设备的全部功能，这对护理构成了重大障碍。本文的目的是概述这个问题，并鼓励对这个重要主题进行讨论。讨论了当前的安全需求、标准、限制以及如何解决这一护理障碍的建议。
The rise in the use of mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablet personal computers, and wireless medical devices, as well as the wireless networks that enable their use, has raised new concerns for data security and integrity. Standardized Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA)-compliant electronic data security that will allow ubiquitous use of mobile health technologies is needed. The lack of standardized data security to assure privacy, to allow interoperability, and to maximize the full capabilities of mobile devices presents a significant barrier to care. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of the issue and to encourage discussion of this important topic. Current security needs, standards, limitations, and recommendations for how to address this barrier to care are discussed.
