En los últimos años, el uso de tecnologías de la información y comunicación se ha incrementado en Latinoamérica y parece ser un recurso útil para mejorar la comunicación, adherencia y control del paciente con asma.  Objetivo: evaluar la frecuencia y patrones de preferencia de las tecnologías de comunicación e información en pacientes ecuatorianos con asma bronquial.  Métodos: estudio transversal en el que se utilizó la versión en español del cuestionario Michigan. La edad y el nivel educacional fueron categorizados en tres grupos. Se utilizó regresión logística entre los grupos respecto a la frecuencia de uso e interés en buscar y recibir información relacionada con el asma, según la edad y nivel educativo.  Resultados: en nuestro estudio participaron 222 pacientes. La edad media fue de 45.6 ± 17.4 años y el sexo más común fue el femenino, con 89.25 %. Casi todos los pacientes tenían teléfono celular (87.5 %) y acceso a internet (62.7 %). Las tres tecnologías de la información y comunicación con mayor probabilidad de ser usadas con fines de buscar o recibir información acerca de la enfermedad fueron WhatsApp, Facebook y correo electrónico (p &lt; 0.05).  Conclusión: el correo electrónico y los mensajes de texto fueron preferidos por los pacientes, sin embargo, WhatsApp y Facebook pueden ser apropiados para ciertos grupos, especialmente para los jóvenes. La selección de TIC adecuadas para la comunicación médico-paciente podría mejorar la adherencia y el control de los pacientes con asma.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract  Background: Inadequate communication between asthmatic patients and their physicians may interfere directly with asthma control. In the last years, the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) it has increased in Latin-America. This technology seems to be a good tool to improve communication and management of the asthmatic patient.  Objective: We evaluated the frequency and preference patterns of communication and information technologies in Ecuadorian patients with bronchial asthma.  Methods: We conducted a pilot cross-sectional study to identify the frequency and preferences of ICT in patients with asthma. The Spanish version of the Michigan questionnaire was used. Age and educational level were categorized into 3 groups. We used logistic regression between these groups regarding the frequency of use, interest in seeking and receiving information related to their asthma for the age and educational level of the patients.  Results: A total of 222 patients participated in our study. The mean age was 45.6 years (SD 17.4), the most common sex was female with 89.25 %. Almost all patients had a cell phone (87.5 %) and internet access (62.7 %). The three ICTs most likely to be used to search for or receive information about their illness were WhatsApp, Facebook and email (p &lt;0.05).  Conclusion: Information and communication technologies improve the care of asthmatic patients. In our pilot study email and text messages are the most preferred ICT among patients however WhatsApp and Facebook may be appropriate for certain ages especially young asthmatic. Knowledge of preferences can help the development of ICT in a personalized way and improve the outcomes in patients with asthma.]]></p></abstract>
