Abstract
This study was to build a web-based short messaging service (SMS) system in operating room. We approached the efficiency of SMS for patient's families during the time series (pre-, intra-, and post-operation). In this study, 322 participants received 685 text messages. The findings show the usability of SMS that applied to the clinical care, especially for reducing family anxiety, improved their satisfaction. Therefore, it is suggested to exploit the effectiveness of personal medical care.
