Design of a mobile app to assist post-myocardial infarction patients in adhering to medication and their follow-up

Myocardial infarction (MI) can result in irreversible death of heart muscles due to prolonged hypoxia. Recurrent MI significantly increases mortality and morbidity, negatively affecting patients’ quality of life. Our research aims to improve medication adherence and follow-up care for post-MI patients by addressing key issues such as forgetfulness, medication side effects, complex drug regimens, and low health literacy through the proposal of a mobile application with innovative features to support post-MI patients.
