title: Draft guideline for the development of evidence based medicine-related apps.
abstract: Evidence based recommendations can significantly aid decision processes in medicine and mobile apps are starting to enter this domain. Considering the rapid access to and quick processing of information made possible by such apps, it is especially important to ensure the quality and structure of the provided data and to also keep the limitations of the information sources in mind. A draft guideline meant for implementing appropriate standards for such apps is outlined in this contribution.
