Resumo

A possibilidade de melhorar os índices de literacia em saúde e, com isso, os resultados obtidos em saúde é um dos desafios que se apresentam ao campo da Comunicação em Saúde. Para tal, neste texto reflexivo propõe-se um caminho que parte dos vários conhecimentos específicos em saúde como forma de melhorar os índices gerais de literacia em saúde com a consequente melhoria dos resultados em saúde. Neste percurso, a Teoria do Capital Social desempenha um papel nuclear, quer no desenho das intervenções, quer na efetividade da transmissão do conhecimento. Considerando estas premissas, um estudo piloto – que recorreu a entrevistas semiestruturadas realizadas após a utilização do protótipo da aplicação mobile (APP) – foi desenvolvido tendo-as presentes no desenho e na implementação de uma investigação eHealth que pretende melhorar o envolvimento dos pais no período pré-natal através da utilização de uma APP centrada na transmissão de conhecimento específico, medindo, posteriormente, o índice de literacia dos participantes, bem como a perceção da importância e da aceitação destas intervenções na melhoria desse índice.
