Planejamento e Gestão da atenção a pessoas com Pé Diabético através de um Sistema de Informações Geográficas e de um aplicativo para dispositivos móveis em uma Unidade de Saúde da Família de Manaus, Amazonas.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to develop a proposal for Planning and Management of Attention to Diabetic Foot through a Geographic Information Management System, in Manaus, Amazonas. A descriptive study was carried out, whose purpose was the experimental development of an application, to manage the attention of people with diabetes and diabetic foot. Previous questions were asked to support the work with the Geographic Information System. The development took place in four phases: geo-referencing of the neighborhood, elaboration of the database for evaluation and risk stratification of people with diabetes and diabetic foot, construction of dynamic maps of the coverage area of the family health teams and development of a prototype of an application for managing the information of these patients. The study estimated a population of 11,041 people distributed in 3,135 families to the studied neighborhood. A total of 374 people diagnosed with diabetes under the responsibility of the Vila da Prata Family Health Module were 3.98% of those aged 15 and over. The neighborhood was georeferenced based on the three coverage areas of the family health teams, which total 21 micro areas. All the health units that provide care for people with diabetes at an outpatient and hospital level in the city of Manaus were geo-referenced. The database is composed of the modules of household registration, individual registration, general clinical evaluation, risk classification, physical examination, neurological evaluation, vascular evaluation, ankle-brachial index, diabetic foot classification, medications in use, laboratory evaluation, complementary exams, wound evaluation, Texas classification and severity of infection and conduction framework. The application was developed from the database modules on the PowerApps platform. The study concluded that the Diabetic Foot System combined with ArcGIS has the potential to become an effective tool for planning and managing care for people with diabetes and diabetic foot.
