SANTANA MACHADO, Alfredo Tito; SANTANA RODRIGUEZ, Laura; ARTILES GONZALEZ, Pedro Martín  and  MATOS OJEDA, José Luis. Mobile application for statistics analysis on Android. RCIM [online]. 2022, vol.14, n.2  Epub Dec 01, 2022. ISSN 1684-1859.

The use of mobile devices in modern life is essential due to the advantages they provide, offering new possibilities and implementing virtual services. The existence of greater number of mobiles phones than computers in Cuban students motivated the realization of this application. The objective of the article is to describe the application "Statistical calculations and rates in health" (Calc. Rates version 1.7) built to perform calculations in a Biostatistics course, covering a large part of the content of this subject in the undergraduate teaching of medical universities, as well as other content related with this topic. It also incorporates a database with demographic and health information on Cuba and its provinces in the period 2013-2020. As a result, technological independence was achieved by stopping using foreign programs and a greater portability, since it works on both mobile phones and computers through an Android emulator.

Keywords : android; mobile phone; apk; biostatistics; rates; demography; health; statistic.
