Until this moment, we are defining technology supports and didactic contents for patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
A cross-sectional descriptive exploratory study, using a questionnaire was developed. The principal findings show that ppatients report more questions in the activities of everyday life and on the breathing exercise. We found that the technological supports with higher utility, intention and perceived ease of use are the books, phone and video. Patients with higher literacy and greater technological literacy showed a greater utility in the use of Web technologies, patients with lower literacy and technological literacy have higher utility, intention and ease the use of mobile phones for information access.
The teaching resources may adopt different types of technological supports, since that available in function of literacy and technological literacy of clients and that responds to patients needs.
We think that the promotion of effective management of therapeutic regimen in patients with COPD is a challenge for the nurses. The teaching resources can be facilitators of learning processes, for integration into the self care of complex treatment regimens.
