    El propósito de este estudio fue examinar los motivos y las barreras en el uso de las redes sociales en la atención médica para pacientes y profesionales de la salud. Se encontró que los pacientes y usuarios profesionales de la salud se constituyeron en Facebook (62.9%), en Twitter (49.4%) en YouTube (13.4%). El uso de Facebook entre los pacientes fue mayor (89%) porque ahora se está convirtiendo en un sitio de redes sociales para el hogar. LinkedIn entre los profesionales de la salud fue el sitio más grande (95%) debido a que es una red extendida de colegas. Los resultados sugieren una fuerte variación en los motivos de los pacientes y los médicos para el uso de las redes sociales.
