[目的/意义] 以哮喘为例，对其相关手机应用程序的可信性及全面性作详细探讨。[方法/过程] 以中英文关键词"哮喘""asthma""肺功能""lung function""峰流量""peak flow""吸入器""inhaler"，在App Store、Google Play及安卓市场上搜寻，并下载相关程序进行筛查及评估。根据英国BTS/SIGN、美国EPR-3、国际GINA及HONcode的医学及信息指引去统计哮喘疾病和相关治疗资料并评估其可信性及全面性。[结果/结论] 研究发现许多手机应用程序的内容与医学指引不一致，如果医护工作者以手机应用程序内容作学习用途并依此为患者提供医学意见，有可能对患者健康造成危害。目前在市场上较难找出优质的应用程序，应用程序的开发者及应用程序平台的管理者应作出改善。

[Purpose/significance] Previous studies have revealed that many medical professionals had used mobile apps to find medical information. However, the quality of these apps has not been reviewed yet.[Method/process] This study searches iOS App Store, Google Play and Hiapk Market using the terms "asthma", "lung function", "peak flow" and "inhaler". The apps are downloaded for systematic assessment using criteria derived from the UK BTS/SIGN, USA EPR-3, international GINA and HONcode guidelines.[Result/conclusion] The results reveal that some of the apps and guideline contents are inconsistent and may lead to inappropriate treatments. This study also highlights that app inventers should consider improvement in developing health related apps. Medical professionals should not use these apps for their practice.
