Objective
To evaluate the effectiveness in the promotion of physical and mental health of health professionals working in primary care through the use of a mobile application that includes three modules: physical exercise, nutrition and positive emotional health.
Design
Quasi-experimental, before-after, non-randomized study that evaluates the effectiveness of the Cuídate section of the SalusOne® mobile application, specifically in the modules of emotional well-being, virtual gym and healthy eating.
Place
Bilbao-Basurto and Rioja Alavesa Integrated Health Organizations.
Participants
100 primary care professionals, of whom 58 completed the study. The majority were women (93.1%), with a mean age of 45.2 years. Nursing professionals predominated (56.9%).
Interventions
Use of the “Cuídate” section of the SalusOne® app, which includes: virtual gym, healthy eating module and emotional well-being module.
Main measurements
Baseline and 6-month assessments on physical health, mental health (DASS-21 scale), eating habits and satisfaction with the intervention.
Results
Significant improvements were observed in LDL-cholesterol (-4.5 mg/dL; p = 0.033), HDL-cholesterol (+3.8 mg/dL; p = 0.004), glycosylated hemoglobin (-0.05%; p = 0.038) and daily fruit consumption (+0.43 pieces; p< 0.001). The DASS-21 scale showed statistically significant reductions in depression, anxiety and stress. 74.6% expressed high satisfaction and a desire to continue using the tool.
Conclusions
Cuídate program could have a positive effect on the physical and emotional health of healthcare professionals. Despite the methodological limitations and the low adherence rate, the results suggest its usefulness as an accessible strategy for promoting occupational health.
