Abstract

The use of technological tools in health allows reaching geographical points where traditional medicine draws a gap between health institutions and patients. These technologies can reduce medical absence rates, increase adherence to treatment, and help ensure the appropriate frequency of medical visits. In the present work it was proposed to carry out a review of the literature on the control and follow-up in patients with oxygen and respiratory diseases through technological tools. A search was carried out in the databases Pubmed, Cochrane, Medline, Lilacs, Biomed, National Library, Science, with descriptors such as Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) and Descriptors in Health Sciences (DeCS). The analysis of the literature was carried out using the elements Strobe, Amstar. From the studies included in the final analysis, it can be evidenced that mobile health technology has become a very important tool in the monitoring and control of patients with respiratory diseases, which provides data in real time that They can be used to minimize complications and expand the opportunity for quality care in patients with respiratory problems, however, it is necessary to carry out clinical trials to determine the clinical benefits, when using technological tools in this area.
