Abstract
Objective

This study aims to identify the effectiveness of a mobile application-based home care nursing service in improving patient quality of life and healthy lifestyle and reducing the family burden.

Methods

This study was a clinical trial with a pre- and post-test control group design. The accessible population in this study was post-discharge patients from general hospitals in West Kalimantan and East Kalimantan, Indonesia, who required home care nursing. We allocated a selected sample of 40 people to the intervention group and 40 people to the control group using a randomized block design. We gave mobile application-based home care nursing to the intervention group and community health nursing care to the control group. This study was conducted in 10 months (January–October 2022). We measure the patient quality of life, healthy lifestyle, and family burden before and 3 months after the intervention.

Results

There was no significant difference in the post-test quality of life between the two groups (p =  0.187), but there was a significant difference in the psychological (p =  0.014) and environmental health (p =  0.021) domain of quality of life. There was no significant difference in the post-test of a healthy lifestyle between the two groups (p =  0.083). There was a significant difference in the post-test family burden between the two groups (p =  0.015).

Conclusion

Mobile Application-Based Home Care Nursing is effective in improving patient quality of life in the psychological and environmental health domains and reducing the family burden for post-discharge patients.

Resumen
Objetivo

Este estudio tiene como objetivo identificar la efectividad de un servicio de enfermería de atención domiciliaria basado en una aplicación móvil para mejorar la calidad de vida y el estilo de vida saludable del paciente y reducir la carga familiar.

Métodos

Este estudio fue un ensayo clínico con un diseño de grupo de control antes y después de la prueba. La población accesible en este estudio eran pacientes después del alta de hospitales generales en West Kalimantan y East Kalimantan, Indonesia, que requerían cuidados de enfermería en el hogar. Asignamos una muestra seleccionada de 40 personas al grupo de intervención y 40 personas al grupo de control mediante un diseño de bloques aleatorios. Brindamos atención de enfermería domiciliaria basada en aplicaciones móviles al grupo de intervención y atención de enfermería de salud comunitaria al grupo de control. Medimos la calidad de vida del paciente, el estilo de vida saludable y la carga familiar antes y tres meses después de la intervención.

Resultados

No hubo diferencia significativa en la calidad de vida posterior a la prueba entre los dos grupos (p = 0,187), pero hubo una diferencia significativa en el dominio de calidad de vida psicológica (p =  0,014) y de salud ambiental (p =  0,021). No hubo diferencia significativa en el post-test de estilo de vida saludable entre los dos grupos (p =  0,083). Hubo una diferencia significativa en la carga familiar posterior a la prueba entre los dos grupos (p =  0,015).

Conclusión

La enfermería de atención domiciliaria basada en aplicaciones móviles es eficaz para mejorar la calidad de vida del paciente en los dominios de salud psicológica y ambiental y reducir la carga familiar para los pacientes después del alta.
