Optimización del manejo oncológico en caninos y felinos: compendio de protocolos a través de una aplicación móvil.

Abstract

The evolution of Information and Communication Technologies has had a significant impact on various fields, including veterinary medicine. This study focused on the development of a prototype called VetOnco, a mobile application specifically designed to enhance the management of oncological patients in veterinary practice. The application addresses challenges such as the complexity of chemotherapeutic drug dosing and the need for a systematic approach to treatment. VetOnco offers an intuitive platform that enables veterinarians to calculate medication doses based on specific patient data, improving the accuracy and effectiveness of treatment. Although the application does not yet provide information on side effects, its functionality in dosing and treatment monitoring has proven to be highly useful. The evaluation of VetOnco has revealed that the application is highly valued by veterinary professionals. Results show that most users find the tool useful for clinical practice, highlighting its ability to simplify complex processes and improve the management of oncological treatments. The study concludes that VetOnco represents an innovative solution with high potential to enhance oncological care in veterinary medicine. Its implementation not only optimizes the accuracy of drug dosing but also paves the way for future advancements in the management of oncological patients.
