s******g 发帖数: 755 | 1 According to a survey conducted by Aptilon, a pharmaceutical sales and
marketing channel company, by the end of this year about 61 percent of US
physicians will be using iPhones. About 9 percent will use an Android
smartphone and 9 percent will be using a BlackBerry smartphone, according to
the survey. Overall 84 percent of US physicians will have a smartphone of
some kind, the poll of 341 “HCPs” or healthcare providers found. The poll
was conducted in February.
The remaining 16 percent of physicians said they would still be using their
regular cellphone at the end of 2011.
Aptilon said the percent of US physicians who owned an iPhone at the
beginning of 2011 was 39 percent.
This survey looks to be the same one Aptilon released results from earlier
this year: Last month Aptilon reported that 79 percent of U.S. healthcare
professionals named the iPad as their tablet of choice. About 12 percent of
those surveyed said they would choose a Windows tablet and 9 percent
expressed a preference for a Google Android tablet.
Chilmark Research has estimated that 22 percent of U.S. physicians had iPads
at the end of 2010. That was before the iPad 2 was commercially available,
too.
