Abstract | The commercial development and expansion of wireless networks has led to the creation of Wireless Handheld Technology (WHT) devices which could prove invaluable in a clinical setting. This exploratory study aimed to find the usage of WHT devices and its impact in facilitating the phenomena of interprofessional communication in a hospital clinical team. The study looked at a heterogeneous team of nurses of a regional hospital in Queensland State, Australia. The primary feature of this study deals with the usage of the personal digital assistant and smart phone. A crossover study was carried out for three months in 2010, |
