Apresentando o TratBem: Suporte Social, Informacional e Psicológico ao Tabagista
Abstract
Smoking is the number one preventable cause of death in the world. Only 5% of those who try to quit without support succeed. The best support available today in Brazil can be found anti-tobacco groups hosted in public hospitals, which can help only a few patients at a time. We introduce TratBem, a computational system capable of delivering informational, social and psychological support anytime anywhere to smokers. We present a feasibility study for the use of mobile computing in public healthcare, followed by another study of how the introduction of TratBem impacted the lives of the smokers and raised their abstinence rates.
