Computerized nursing process: development of a mobile technology for use with neonates. Rev Bras Enferm. 2018;71(suppl 3):1273-1280 Authors: Lima JJ, Vieira LGD, Nunes MM Abstract OBJECTIVE: to build a mobile technology to assist nurses during data collection, diagnostic reasoning, and identification of interventions in neonates. METHOD: methodological study with a qualitative approach. The development was carried out in three phases, namely: bibliographical survey, construction of a database of diagnosis/interventions, and development of the software. We used the development tools Ruby on Rails, IONIC 2, PostgresSQL, and Amazon EC2. RESULTS: The developed technology received the name Natus, able to contribute to the development of the nursing process applied to patients of neonatal units. Its requirements are: to define human needs, select nursing diagnoses, select interventions, define time periods, and issue printed files. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: the technology built is a computerized tool that allows for the development of the nursing process, facilitating data collection, diagnostic reasoning, and identification and grouping of the clinical signs presented by the newborn in neonatal units.
