Resumen

Currently, in much of Latin America, heart attack is one of the main problems of society, especially in rural areas of Peru; is one of the main reasons why heart attacks are part of the highest percentage mortality rate due to the little technological development for the support and monitoring of those prone to heart attacks. Above all, a lack of governmental support. For this reason, the present research work is generated, which aims to provide benefits for controlling and monitoring the population prone to heart attacks. Therefore, it was proposed a system of frequency and pulses linked to a mobile application, with high accessibility to people with low resources, such as the majority of people in rural areas. For this purpose, a form was filled out and sent to cardiology students and teachers, together with 5 doctors from Northern Lima, Peru, to collect the main requirements for the project's development. In addition, the scrum methodology was used, as it is the most appropriate for a changing project like this one. Finally, it was concluded that this project will provide different adequate and viable benefits for the control and monitoring of this social problem.
