Sanitas It is aware of the capacity offered by applications that can be carried on mobile phones and tablets to offer useful, relevant and valuable information for mobile device carriers. Throughout the summer 2012 Sanitas has been publishing many applications under the name of Sanitas ideas so that customers and users in general could send and vote their preferred mobile applications. The objective was to identify which health-related applications are the most relevant for users.
Among the applications the categories that Sanitas has identified are the pregnancy, that so much information demands, especially for first-time parents. There were also applications that took into account the pediatric baby tracking, the lactation, the ovulation and many more.
From the total votes received, a ranking has been obtained with the following applications:
- iPediatric: application that facilitates pediatric monitoring of children.
- Babymecum: allows you to check the appropriate medication dose according to the child's characteristics.
- iPregnant: supports the medical monitoring of pregnancy.
- Lactation: application on the compatibility of breastfeeding with medical prescriptions, environmental contaminants, diseases, etc. It is also on the Android
It is important to note that all these applications are free and that many are available in the version for Apple and Android devices. In Peques and Más we have commented on some of them and of course what we have just read is that the companies of Development of applications in the mobile and in Spain do not stop growing. And it seems to me that they are not going to stop doing it by offering information, services and I hope that soon more valuable content as direct communication with the Doctor or Doctor.
We congratulate Sanitas for promoting this type of contest. It is very important that the efforts of the developers and the companies in which they work are recognized, that they be encouraged to follow, that the functions of the applications be disseminated and that we use them frequently to respond to our information demands. In any case, Applications cannot be substitutes for medical professionals and health experts and we have to keep going to them to receive accurate diagnoses and treatments.
