ABSTRACT

Background@#According to the report of see in 2016, 90% of adults are using mobile phones and 64% smart phones, and healthcare organizations are beginning to explore the opportunities in which mobile phones can improve and streamline care. In this study involves the risk of pathogenic virus and bacteria of mobile phones used by healthcare workers.

The research collected from the random methods and Mongolian National University of Medical Science‟s 80 students are participated and take a test sample that detected bacteria, them using smart phones. After all students from gave them a survey about usages and clean of smart phones. @*Results@#The results revealed 66% of pathogenic bacterial contamination. Our survey was detected in 33 (63,5%) S.aureus, S.pneumoniae-5 (9.4%) E.coli 2 (3.8%) Bacillus, spp-4 (7.6%) Enterococcus-6 (11.5%) Acinetobacter-2 (3.8%).
