Abstract

Objective: To develop a tool using mobile health technology in order to test its applicability during prenatal care. Methods: A quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out. The research participants watched an explanatory video about the application's operation and after that, a questionnaire adapted from the Usabilyty Scala System (SUS) was applied. The collected data were analyzed, using graphic and / or numerical methods, available in Microsoft® Word and Excel software and helped to perfect the application. Results: 14 physicians with experience in prenatal care participated in the study. According to the data collected, 100% of the participants stated that they would use the demonstrated application and believe that it would be useful in prenatal care, 64% believe that the app is easy to use, and 36% believe that they may need help during the use of it. Conclusion: The development of a digital tool for storing the clinical information of the prenatal consultation seems to have importance for the medical team during the prenatal care.
