Abstract
Objective: Validate app for primary care physicians treating patients with HIV / AIDS. Methods: The application was built from database mechanics, mobile simulator and digital platform. To validate two cases were constructed and tested with resident doctors of Family and Community Medicine answering them without and with the application. The validated SUS questionnaire and the Mc Nemar test were used for the results. Results: The survey was collected from 22 physicians who answered the clinical cases and 100% of them incorrectly regarding the exams to be requested. After using the app all the answers were correct. Of the total, 86.4% (n = 19) missed or failed to respond to the standard antiretroviral therapy regimen and, after using the app, 90.9% (n = 20) got it right (p <0.0001). There was no statistical significance (p = 0.6831) about the need for prophylaxis for opportunistic infections for people living with HIV / AIDS, however it is noteworthy that 4 missed the question and after using the app this number dropped to 2. After 90.9% hit the opportunistic infection therapy (p = 0.0077) compared to 30.8% right at the pre-application time. The app got a total score (100%) of 77.3% of users according to satisfaction questionnaire. Conclusion: The application was validated from the research; however, it is noteworthy that its use does not make the physician self-sufficient to treat patients with HIV/AIDS.
