Abstract

The health care professionals are increasingly using handheld devices in their practice. This paper presents some findings from an interview study conducted on users of a medical information system running on a Nokia 9210 Communicator. The users have in general a positive picture of the system but the actual usage patterns and the settings in which the system is used vary.
