      The term mobile health was first used by Robert Istepanian, who defined it as “the use of mobile communication and network technologies for health care”. As the name suggests, it is the use of mobile devices and mobile communication for various purposes in the healthcare sector, such as fetching important data, medicines, practices etc. Mobile health includes wearable devices, mobile phones, tablets, PC, and PDA.

      There is also another term used in health sector known as eHealth. eHealth is the use of various electronic devices like communication satellites, various smart machines, computers, smart devices, mobile phones, and different patient monitors, for the benefits and digitalisation of the health sector.

      The relationship between eHealth and mHealth is like a parent-child, where eHealth acts as parent and mHealth as the child. Digitalisation through mobile networks and communication is the part of eHealth which also use other communication methods like Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and satellite.

      There are various developments in progress regarding mHealth for example in November 2019 the new program was launched at University Hospitals (UH) of Ohio, which is known as Cutler Centre. The program included providing health and care support to men, mobile health applications, and patient-centric designs.
      The project is focused on men as it is reported that men see the doctors for check-up less frequently than women. So the main aim of the project is to increase the interactions by providing various applications related to medicines, common male diseases (e.g. heart and urological diseases).
