Building MHealth technology for Health Promotion in Reproductive Planning: innovations in primary care

Abstract

Reproductive Planning is a recognized basic human right and is essential to guaranteeing the quality of health providers’ work processes in Primary Health Care (PHC). This study aimed to build a prototype of a mobile application on reproductive planning to aid the ongoing education of nurses in PHC. This methodological study is based on four stages: modeling, navigation design, abstract interface design, and implementation, and was built based on the thematic categorization of article contents stemming from an integrative review, totaling 24 moblets. The initial screen is presented to access educational technology, including the key that enters the application, the contents, the other interfaces, and the presentation of the theme involved. Relevant content was emphasized for a person-cen-tered approach, with quick and easy access to content available in just one click, involving key aspects: promoting welcoming, qualified listening, creating bonds and trust, and contraceptive counseling. Its applicability with simple language, easy access, and usability, together with a clear content based on up-to-date evidence, will offer greater quality and efficiency of care.
