We evaluated the effect of the application using a controlled trial involving 2 similar units in a large teaching hospital. Patients on the intervention unit were offered use of tablet computers with the portal application during their hospitalization. We assessed patients\u2019 ability to correctly name their nurse, primary service physicians, physician roles, planned tests and procedures, medications started, and medications stopped since admission. We also administered the Short Form of the Patient Activation Measure.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Results Overall, 100 intervention- and 102 control-unit patients participated. A higher percentage of intervention-unit patients correctly named \u22651 physician (56% vs 29.4%; P &amp;lt; .001) and \u22651 physician role (47% vs 15.7%; P &amp;lt; .001). Knowledge of nurses\u2019 names, planned tests, planned procedures, and medication changes was generally low and not significantly different between the study units. The Short Form of the Patient Activation Measure mean (SD) score was also not significantly different at 64.1 (13.4) vs 62.7 (12.8); P = .46.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusions Additional research is needed to identify optimal methods to engage and inform patients during their hospitalization, which will improve preparation for self- management after discharge.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jamia\/ocv058","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,16]],"date-time":"2015-06-16T00:50:54Z","timestamp":1434415854000},"page":"159-165","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":74,"title":["The effect of tablet computers with a mobile patient portal application on hospitalized patients\u2019 knowledge and activation"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Kevin J","family":"O\u2019Leary","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Hospital Medicine, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Ilinois, USA"}]},{"given":"Mary E","family":"Lohman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Ilinois, USA"}]},{"given":"Eckford","family":"Culver","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Chicago, Illinois, USA"}]},{"given":"Audrey","family":"Killarney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Hospital Medicine, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Ilinois, USA"}]},{"suffix":"Jr","given":"G","family":"Randy Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Hospital Medicine, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Ilinois, USA"}]},{"given":"David M","family":"Liebovitz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of General Internal Medicine, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Illinois, USA"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,15]]},"reference":[{"issue":"11","key":"2020110613010650200_ocv058-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1102","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMsa0802381","article-title":"Growth in the care of older patients by hospitalists in the United States","volume":"360","author":"Kuo","year":"2009","journal-title":"N Engl J Med."},{"issue":"3","key":"2020110613010650200_ocv058-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"238","DOI":"10.1002\/jhm.295","article-title":"Underutilized time for health education of hospitalized patients","volume":"3","author":"Chu","year":"2008","journal-title":"J Hosp Med."},{"issue":"3","key":"2020110613010650200_ocv058-B3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"972","DOI":"10.1213\/ane.0b013e31817eea85","article-title":"Clinicians consistently exceed a typical person's short-term memory during preoperative teaching","volume":"107","author":"Sandberg","year":"2008","journal-title":"Anesth Analg."},{"issue":"2","key":"2020110613010650200_ocv058-B4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"199","DOI":"10.1001\/archinternmed.2008.565","article-title":"Ability of hospitalized patients to identify their in-hospital physicians","volume":"169","author":"Arora","year":"2009","journal-title":"Arch Intern Med."},{"issue":"4","key":"2020110613010650200_ocv058-B5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"53","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1945-1474.2005.tb00568.x","article-title":"Does your patient know your name?
