Abstract
CASTILLO SIERRA, Diana Marcela et al. Strategy for the social appropriation of knowledge in myocardial ischemia. Rev Cuid [online]. 2023, vol.14, n.2, e15. Epub Sep 08, 2023. ISSN 2216-0973. https://doi.org/10.15649/cuidarte.2823.
Introduction:
The construction of knowledge from the exchange of knowledge between patients, families, and healthcare teams is a felt need that can impact health education and adherence to treatment.
Objective:
To develop a social appropriation strategy that enables innovation in the health care of people with ischemic heart disease and their families through the use of an MHealth tool.
Materials and methods:
Exploratory study that allowed the design of a strategy for the social appropriation of knowledge to improve the cardiovascular health of people suffering from myocardial ischemia. Thirty-one people participated, including patients, family members, and health professionals. Two virtual workshops were held in June, and follow-up phone calls were made between August and September. The participant's experiences and knowledge enabled the construction of the MHealth tool.
Results:
The critical reflection of the stakeholders facilitated the construction and development of the MHealth tool (webpage/app) named “Cuidando tu corazón” (Taking care of your heart).
Discussion:
Social appropriation strategies are a relevant tool for knowledge creation in health.
Conclusions:
The strategy implemented made it possible to recognize the importance of developing cardiovascular healthcare tools from stakeholders' needs, perspectives, and beliefs to improve education and care.
