Value of PDAs in Clinical Practice and Education My Internal Medicine Perspective Lorenzo Di Francesco, MD, FACP Assistant Professor of Medicine Associate Program Director, GMH Co-Director, Hospital Medicine Unit Emory University School of Medicine March 27, 2003

Outline Overview of PDAs PDA uses Teaching Opportunities Examples Organizational Medical Teaching Opportunities Examples Quick reference Prediction rules Medical calculators EBM Pharmacopoeias

Key Points The Benefits of a PDA in Medicine point of care information replaces “lab coat syndrome” reduces need to memorize complex information encourages more “critical thinking” improves efficiency and safety of care promotes self learning and information sharing

PDA Types Operating System Palm OS Windows OS EPOC OS

Handspring Visor, Palm Pilot, TRG Pro, HandEra, Sony, IBM Palm OS Handspring Visor, Palm Pilot, TRG Pro, HandEra, Sony, IBM Advantages Cheap, small, track patients, abundant medical references Disadvantages Slower than Windows/EPOC. Screen smaller. Keyboard +/-

Casio, Compaq, HP, NEC, Dell Window CE OS Casio, Compaq, HP, NEC, Dell Advantages More complex multimedia capacity. Full sized colored screens, slots/ports for expansion. Disadvantages Larger, more expensive with less medical software to date. Battery life?

Symbian, Psion, Ericsson, Oregon Scientific EPOC OS Symbian, Psion, Ericsson, Oregon Scientific Advantages Most advanced (word processing, spread sheets, voice recording). Built in keyboards, long battery life. Disadvantages Larger, more expensive. Less software than Palm or Windows.
