基于移动电话的干预措施为难以接触到的服务不足的人群提供了一种提供高质量医疗保健的手段。由于慢性病患病率高而获得医疗保健的机会有限，移民农场工人 (MFW) 是美国服务最匮乏的人群之一。然而，尚不清楚家庭佣工是否可以使用用于移动医疗（mHealth）干预措施的移动电话设备，或者他们是否愿意使用此类技术。确定移动设备的拥有率以及在家庭工作场所使用移动医疗策略的意愿。对 80 名西班牙裔家庭佣工进行了移动医疗设备演示和调查，以评估移动电话和移动医疗设备的使用情况以及使用此类技术的意愿。在 80 名参与者中，81% (65/80) 拥有能够发送和接收健康相关消息的手机。大多数参与者（65/80，81%）愿意使用移动医疗技术，并认为这有助于提高用药依从性、自我监测健康状况以及更快地接受医生的药物调整（5 点李克特量表中位数≥4）。年龄和使用移动医疗的态度之间的关系没有统计学意义。西班牙裔家庭佣工可以使用手机，并且愿意使用移动医疗设备。未来的工作需要全面评估这些设备的使用程度。
Mobile phone–based interventions present a means of providing high quality health care to hard-to-reach underserved populations. Migrant farm workers (MFWs) are among the most underserved populations in the United States due to a high prevalence of chronic diseases yet limited access to health care. However, it is unknown if MFWs have access to mobile phone devices used in mobile health (mHealth) interventions, or if they are willing to use such technologies. Determine rates of ownership of mobile devices and willingness to use mHealth strategies in MFWs. A demonstration of mHealth devices and a survey were individually administered to 80 Hispanic MFWs to evaluate use of mobile phones and mHealth devices and willingness to use such technologies. Of the 80 participants, 81% (65/80) owned cell phones capable of sending and receiving health-related messages. Most participants (65/80, 81%) were receptive to using mHealth technology and felt it would be helpful in enhancing medication adherence, self-monitoring health conditions, and receiving quicker medication changes from their doctors (median scores ≥4 on 5-point Likert scales). Relations between age and attitudes toward using mHealth were not statistically significant. Hispanic MFWs have access to mobile phones and are willing to use mHealth devices. Future work is needed to comprehensively evaluate the degree to which these devices could be used.
