Abstract
At present, the challenge of medical students is to develop skills in the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), and these challenges are not only applicable to modern techniques offered largely in the specialties of research profile Objective: health is currently developing skills in the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and it was evidenced in students of the ESPOCH Medical Degree. Methods: a descriptive study was conducted to determine the group of students in the management of ICTs through random sampling, selecting 93 students, 61 female and 32 male. Results: 97.85% (n = 91) students have a smartphone, while 2.15% (n = 2) do not have smartphones, but use other mobile devices in the event that you want to install and manage health applications. Of all the study elements, limitedly 2.86% (n = 2) regularly use applications for health. Conclusion: the constant evolution of mobile technologies and health-oriented applications can be seen that there is a low tendency to use this type of applications due to lack of knowledge of them.
