Mobile Devices

The LSUHSC-S Medical Library has created this page in response to the incorporation of mobile devices (Palms, Pocket PCs, iPhones, BlackBerrys, and Kindles) by physicians, students, and clinical staff into the patient care workflow.

We have selected resources and organized them into the following categories:

• Getting Started: Guidance on choosing a device and information on how to put your device to use.


• PDAs: Medical resources for the Palm or Pocket PC.


• iPhone / iPodTouch: Medical software for the iPhone or iPod Touch.


• BlackBerry: Medical applications for the BlackBerry.


• Android: Medical applications for Android devices.


• Kindle: Using Kindles to support healthcare.


• Mobile Friendly Medical Websites: Medical websites specifically designed for mobile devices.


• Installing Software: Installation instructions and tips for your software.
