The use of a mobile application to help teach airway management in rapid sequence intubation
Mobile applications have recently been used as tools to help teach students and professionals in different areas. They are not devoid of mistakes, but books and other printed information can also have errors that are impossible to correct after the impression. In medicine, they can be used to spread guidelines, especially when making a resumé of such extensive information. The RSIApp (rapid sequence intubation application) was created to explain to doctors the best way to manage the airways in a rapid sequence intubation situation. The resumé of the best guidelines is present in this application and can be helpful if the medical team is unsure of the best practices to follow. As a simple web app (download not necessary), it can be used on computers and mobile devices and can save lives if well applied. This Master's in health technology triggered the creation of the RSIApp.
