ABSTRACT

Abstract Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the world. People living in vulnerable and poor places such as slums, rural areas and remote locations have difficulty in accessing medical care and diagnostic tests. In addition, given the COVID-19 pandemic, we are witnessing an increase in the use of telemedicine and non-invasive tools for monitoring vital signs. These questions motivate us to write this point of view and to describe some of the main innovations used for non-invasive screening of heart diseases. Smartphones are widely used by the population and are perfect tools for screening cardiovascular diseases. They are equipped with camera, flashlight, microphone, processor, and internet connection, which allow optical, electrical, and acoustic analysis of cardiovascular phenomena. Thus, when using signal processing and artificial intelligence approaches, smartphones may have predictive power for cardiovascular diseases. Here we present different smartphone approaches to analyze signals obtained from various methods including photoplethysmography, phonocardiograph, and electrocardiography to estimate heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation (SpO2), heart murmurs and electrical conduction. Our objective is to present innovations in non-invasive diagnostics using the smartphone and to reflect on these trending approaches. These could help to improve health access and the screening of cardiovascular diseases for millions of people, particularly those living in needy areas.

ABSTRACT

O relato de experiência foi escolhido como modalidade de pesquisa, uma vez que permite revelar as ações dos indivíduos como participantes, desvendar aspectos subjetivos, analisar e compreender importantes variáveis além de contribuir para a formação de conhecimentos que apontam importantes questões relacionadas ao cuidado domiciliar. Este trabalho tem como objetivo discorrer sobre as principais dificuldades enfrentadas pelos cuidadores inseridos no programa de internação domiciliar na prestação de assistência ao paciente cronicamente enfermo. A internação domiciliar se configura como um componente estratégico importante que se dá de forma gradual por meio da implementação de princípios e diretrizes norteadores das ações que auxiliam na operacionalização desta forma de organização. É fundamental refletir em torno desta estratégia, enfrentar suas dificuldades, desenvolver potenciais e conhecer mecanismos de monitoramento e avaliação como forma de reorientar o processo de trabalho e rever modos e meios de execução.
