Literature Review: The use of Clinical Systems to Improve Outcomes and Efficiencies
Many areas, including healthcare, are undergoing rapid transformations. The emerging technologies and new notions, perspectives, and fresh approaches to resolving various challenges and providing practical solutions constitute our contemporary society's norms. The deployment of technology in the healthcare sector is at an all-time high, where diagnosis and therapeutic intervention are often facilitated, supported, and mediated by technological tools. The new technological solutions are components of the health system geared towards optimizing efficiencies and improving clinical outcomes. There are many and diverse clinical systems in today's healthcare that help improve efficiency in healthcare delivery and overall clinical outcomes. This paper will focus on how innovative clinical systems are transforming overall healthcare.
Annotated Biloglragphy on Health Systems Geared towards Improving Efficiency and Improving Clinical Outcomes

The management of chronic illnesses such as diabetes is increasingly getting digital. Many patients are joining internet and mobile-based platforms for diabetes management directions, recommendations, and guidelines. With mobile phones becoming the prominent communication method globally and their advancing reliability, mobile phones are proving incredible platforms to anchor mobile applications that can act as clinically interactive points for chronic disease self-management platforms. Mobile apps are increasingly constituting clinical health systems geared at improving clinical efficiency and health outcomes, with their increasing deployment in multiple areas of disease management, including being applied in diabetes preventions program and management. Growing evidence demonstrates that diabetes self-care practices can be substantially improved when mobile-based interventions are incorporated to support therapeutic self-management as approaches to interventional adherence and deter disease progression and ensuing complications. The highly valued features in mobile applications include simplicity and capacity to offer specific guidelines, directions, instructions, and share data geared towards improved clinical management of the diseases. Already, various free and pain diabetes management mobile applications exist. Thus, a need to evaluate their effectiveness always arises if better chronic disease health outcomes are to be actualized. There is an increasing necessity to supervise and oversee mobile diabetes applications since the perceived health outcomes or benefits of controlling diabetes through such apps are uncertain.
Before expanding the use of mobile applications in managing chronic illnesses such as diabetes, an in-depth evaluation should be done to interrogate the efficiency, and the impact of such applications, where...
