In Paper 4 there is a very proper result about the paper-based records versus paperless based records which is giving how crucial is digitalization of patient record in health care industry. So, compared with paper-based records, more paperless records

were fully understandable (89.2% v 69.9%, P=0.0001) and fully legible (100% v 64.3%, P < 0.0001). Paperless records were notably more prone to have least one diagnosis recorded (48.2% v 33.2%, P=0.05), to record that advice had been given (23.7% vs 10.7%, P=0.017), and Paperless records were more inclined to indicate when a referral had been initiated, to contain details of the specialty (77.4% v 59.5%, P=0.03). When a prescription had been issued, paperless records were more likely to specify the drug dose (86.6% 66.2%, P=0.005). Paperless records contained significantly more words, abbreviations, and symbols (P < 0.01 for all). At doctor interview, there was no difference between the groups for the proportion of patients or consultations that could be recalled. Doctors using paperless records were able to recall more advice given to patients (38.6% v 26.8%, P=0.03). is identified with the examination of suppositions, assumptions, assessments, perspectives, and feelings of clients, which they express via web-based networking media and other online assets.[4] In the journey of digitalization. there is a technology which is a Mobile devices and mobile health (mHealth) apps are ubiquitous, readily available approaches to collect real-time data on health behaviours, such as dietary intake, physical activity, and sleep [16-18]. mHealth apps are often designed and marketed to provide behavioural tracking and lifestyle modification support [19-22][6].
