Curativo-x: modelo de aplicativo móvel para auxiliar no cuidado de feridas

Abstract

Humans can suffer injuries during their existence, physically or not. When an injury to the epithelial tissue occurs, many people go to clinics or hospitals looking for assistance with different types of procedures. At the end of the attendance, a report made by the team of professionals who performed the work is required. Based on this premise and including the fact that there is a growing increase in the use of mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones in the health area, the objective of this project was to develop an application for Android and iOS systems capable of generating reports of dressings and treatment procedures, allowing the patient's wound recovery to be monitored with photos of the injuries. For the development of the project, at first, the problems related to treatment and monitoring of wounds were identified, followed by a survey on app stores to justify the problem and add to the previously proposed content. A study was carried out on articles and documents provided by hospitals and dressing commissions for a more significant theoretical basis. The software was developed using the React Native framework and Javascript language with the support of Expo platform. The application can register patients, as well as their wounds and all follow-ups and conducts made by health professionals, and make daily reports of treatment with the registration of images.
