摘要
The present study examines the content of current iPhone apps to determine whether the apps adhere to accepted first aid guidelines and if adherence to first aid guidelines between paid apps and free apps is significantly different. This study involved a content analysis of 65 iPhone apps related to first aid. Adherence scores are presented including a list of apps with the best adherence scores. Apps developed by nationally recognized first aid organizations should be considered the best apps to download because of adherence to evidence-based first aid guidelines.
