Resumo
The administration of medications is a central activity in clinical practice, indispensable for the management and control of numerous diseases. However, errors related to medication use represent a challenge for public health, with impacts on patient safety. Forgetfulness and dose duplication in medication administration are common issues that affect treatment adherence and therapeutic efficacy. These errors can occur in both home settings and healthcare institutions and are influenced by various factors. To mitigate this problem, this work aims to describe the development process of a device to assist patients and caregivers in recording medication usage. The project construction was divided into three stages: ideation, prototyping, and anonymous evaluation by healthcare professionals. The ideation stage involved reviewing existing models in the literature, whether already commercialized or not. During prototyping, the goal was to create an organizational device addressing the disadvantages of existing models. In the final stage, a professional evaluation was conducted by a multidisciplinary healthcare team anonymously, focusing on the potential success of the project in achieving itspurpose. The prototype includes two overlapping 3mm MDF boards, displaying the days of theweek, and received positive feedback from the multidisciplinary healthcare team. This researchaimed to highlight the relevance of supporting proper medication administration, generating positive expectations regarding its future applicability for the population.
