Abstract

The study verified whether the use of audiovisual resources in an application improves the effectiveness of e-health interventions and whether it increases the levels of health knowledge in diabetic patients. An experimental, exploratory study with descriptive-qualitative and quantitative components was carried out in groups of diabetic patients (a control group, another that tested the application on Smartphone and another that tested it on digital TV) from various socioeconomic levels in the city of Poços de Caldas, MG. There was a trend of improvement in literacy indicators, especially among those who tested the content on digital TV, it was observed that the higher level of literacy helps in receiving information, and that digital means help to improve levels of health literacy.
