Description
Summary:Objective: Develop an application to guide health professionals during home care in coping with the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: The structure of the application was developed in four stages: Analysis - an integrative literature review was carried out with the Health Sciences databases, such as MEDLINE, SciELO, and LILACS. Design - this step involved planning and producing didactic content, defining topics and writing subjects, selecting media, and designing the interface (layout). Development - definition of the navigation structure and planning of the configuration of environments. Implementation - construction of an environment for downloading the application on the Internet. Results: The ORIENTA COVID-19 application has 40 screens and 130 images describing gowning, and undressing of PPE, including using a homemade mask, guidelines for care to prevent COVID-19, and social etiquette. After registration at the National Institute of Industrial Property, it will be available on the Google Play Store under ORIENTA COVID-19. Conclusion: After an integrative review of the literature obtained from the main databases, the ORIENTA COVID-19 application was developed to support health professionals during home care related to COVID-19.
