Mobile Applications in Childhood Immunization: A Systematic Review

Abstract

The central objective of this paper is to distinguish the impact of different cell phone applications on child vaccination completion. A systematic literature review was conducted to determine how mobile applications have improved the acceptance, education, and fulfillment of vaccines. To this end, an analysis of the aspects, objectives, and differentiated technologies that have fostered the growth of mobile applications and new technologies in childhood immunization is presented. In addition, the obstacles to achieving positive results reported in the scientific literature are identified. Lastly, suggestions are made for future work to improve childhood immunization coverage.
