Among a wide range of ubiquitous systems, smartphone applications have been increasingly developed in healthcare settings to help clinicians as well as patients. Today, many smartphone applications, from basic data analysis to advanced patient monitoring, are available to clinicians and patients. Such applications are now increasingly integrating into healthcare for clinical decision support, and therefore, concerns around accuracy, stability, and dependency of these applications are rising. In addition, lack of attention to the clinicians\u2019 acceptability, as well as the low impact on the medical professionals\u2019 decision making, are posing more serious issues on the acceptability of smartphone applications. This article reviews smartphone-based decision support applications, focusing on hospital care settings and their overall impact of these applications on the wider clinical workflow. Additionally, key challenges and barriers of the current ubiquitous device-based healthcare applications are identified. Finally, this article addresses current challenges, future directions, and the adoption of mobile healthcare applications. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1460458217740722","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,17]],"date-time":"2017-11-17T11:47:59Z","timestamp":1510919279000},"page":"1091-1104","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Clinical decision support systems in hospital care using ubiquitous devices: Current issues and challenges"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Mirza Mansoor","family":"Baig","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"M\u00e4lardalen University, Sweden"}]},{"given":"Hamid","family":"GholamHosseini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"M\u00e4lardalen University, Sweden"}]},{"given":"Aasia A","family":"Moqeem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"M\u00e4lardalen University, Sweden"}]},{"given":"Farhaan","family":"Mirza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand"},{"name":"M\u00e4lardalen University, Sweden"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Lind\u00e9n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"M\u00e4lardalen University, Sweden"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,17]]},"reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"bibr1-1460458217740722","first-page":"59","volume":"2","author":"Ebad R.","year":"2014","journal-title":"Scal Comput Pract Exp"},{"key":"bibr2-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s13246-014-0315-4"},{"key":"bibr3-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10916-012-9898-z"},{"key":"bibr4-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/heapol\/czw056"},{"key":"bibr5-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00207543.2014.939239"},{"key":"bibr6-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11517-012-1021-6"},{"key":"bibr7-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/a0038095"},{"key":"bibr8-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jbi.2015.06.003"},{"key":"bibr9-1460458217740722","first-page":"S1","volume":"13","author":"Volk RJ","year":"2013","journal-title":"BMC Med Inform Decis"},{"key":"bibr10-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4899-7457-0_4"},{"key":"bibr11-1460458217740722","volume-title":"2016 international conference on platform technology and service (PlatCon)","author":"Shin D"},{"key":"bibr12-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/1369118X.2015.1118523"},{"key":"bibr13-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tcm.2015.11.002"},{"issue":"3","key":"bibr14-1460458217740722","first-page":"37","volume":"6","author":"Natarajan K","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Netw Commun Emerg Technol"},{"key":"bibr15-1460458217740722","volume-title":"Wirtschaftsinformatik proceedings","author":"Herterich M"},{"key":"bibr16-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph10116199"},{"key":"bibr17-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.ASW.0000269314.23015.e9"},{"key":"bibr18-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006199-198707000-00002"},{"key":"bibr19-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/WON.0b013e3181d73aab"},{"key":"bibr20-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/scitranslmed.aaa3487"},{"key":"bibr21-1460458217740722","volume-title":"The first international conference on intelligent systems and applications","author":"Lup\u015fe O-S"},{"key":"bibr22-1460458217740722","volume-title":"International conference on interactive mobile communication technologies and learning (IMCL)","author":"Pandria N"},{"key":"bibr23-1460458217740722","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-319-12817-7"},{"issue":"5","key":"bibr24-1460458217740722","first-page":"356","volume":"39","author":"Ventola CL.","year":"2014","journal-title":"Pharm Ther"},{"key":"bibr25-1460458217740722","unstructured":"Market Research. mHealth apps and solutions market by connected devices: global trends and forecast to 2018.
