This study shows the development of a software for calculating the number of nursing team members required for providing care during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Study about the development of a technology based on the literature about data and indicators. The indicators were systematized in the following dimensions: institutional, professional, and occupational structure, all with a focus on coronavirus disease 2019. The software was created to be used on the Web, client-server, in browsers such as Internet Chrome, Explorer, and/or Mozilla Firefox, accessing via an Internet address and also allowing access by Windows, Android, and Linux operating systems, with MySQL database used for data storage. The data and indicators related to the institutional structure for coronavirus disease 2019 were systematized with 10 dimensions and indicators, and the professional and occupational structure, with 14 dimensions and indicators. The construction of computer requirements followed the precepts of software engineering, with theoretical support from the area. In the evaluation of the software, data simulation revealed points that had to be adjusted to ensure security, data confidentiality, and easy handling. The software provides to calculate the size and quality of the team, nursing sizing required due to the needs generated by the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Nonadherence to therapy negatively impacts mortality and quality of life and results in suboptimal efficacy of treatment regimens, threats to patient safety, and increased healthcare costs for disease management. Mobile health solutions can offer users instruments that can promote therapeutic adherence. The objective of this review is to investigate the impact mobile health systems have on therapeutic adherence. Specifically, we want to map the main systems used, the functions implemented, and the different methods of adherence detection used. For this purpose, a scoping review was conducted. The following databases were consulted: PubMed, Cochrane Library, EBSCO (including APA PsycINFO, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, ERIC), including English-language studies published in the last 10 years (2012–2022). The main mobile health systems used are as follows: applications, automated messaging, interactive voice response, and mobile video games. The main features implemented to support medication management were as follows: reminders, self-monitoring instruments, educational support, and caregiver involvement. In conclusion, the use of interactive mobile health instruments intended for use by the patient and/or caregiver can improve objectively and subjectively detected therapeutic adherence. The use of these systems in the therapeutic pathway of users, with a special focus on people with comorbidities and in polypharmacy treatment, represents a challenge to improve caregiver health.
