Abstract

Objective: To examine mobile applications developed to guide healthcare professionals, patients, and their caregivers regarding patient safety interventions in the context of hospitalization. Methods: A technological prospection was conducted in the virtual stores App Store® and Google Play® and through the Google search tool. Inclusion criteria included applications focused on patient safety in the context of hospitalization without temporal limitations. Results: 25 applications were included in the study and analyzed. The majority of the applications were mobile, developed in English, and focused on healthcare professionals. In addition, they had limitations and weaknesses related to design and playful features. Conclusions: The study may contribute to the development of new patient safety education applications that promote increased engagement in error prevention interventions
