Smartphone app for laypeople
It is unclear whether smartphone educational apps for people at risk of
anaphylaxis affect outcomes because the certainty of evidence is very
low. In one trial 38% more laypeople who used a smartphone app to guide
them through using an autoinjector undertook all steps correctly
compared to those who received standard autoinjector instruction (CI not
reported, statistically significant, very low certainty, supplement
S6c).11Hernandez-Munoz LU, Woolley SI, Luyt D, Stiefel G, Kirk
