Various mobile phone apps in the form of medical calculators are available for different prognostic assessments, especially for patients in intensive care units. We performed a systematic review of mobile phone apps in online mobile phone stores to identify apps for mortality risk prediction in intensive care units. Out of 2737 potential mobile phone apps, we included 20 of them in the final content analysis. The most frequently used mortality risk model was Sequential Organ Failure Assessment also known as SOFA. The mobile phone apps were compared based on realistic electronic medical record data. The discrepancies were shown in patients with lower mortality rate. Our results show that this kind of mobile phone apps can be helpful to healthcare professionals and are appropriate for use in clinical practices in most cases.
