- Functional capacity assessment of cardiac amyloidosis patients before treatment and rehabilitationPublication . Delgado, Bruno; Neto, CéliaAim: To evaluate the functional capacity of cardiac amyloidosis patients before starting medication alongside with home-based cardiac rehabilitation program. Methods: The prescription of transthyretin stabilizers requires a patient’s evaluation of the functional capacity. In this study, the functional capacity was assessed by the 6-minute walking test, according to the ATS guidelines. Patients were consecutively recruited for treatment and prior to this, a 6-minute walking teste was performed. Health related quality of life and heart failure symptoms were also evaluated using Minnesota living with heart failure scale and the London Chest Activities of daily living scale. After starting the medication and according to the functional capacity, a home-based cardiac rehabilitation program was also recommended, based on aerobic exercise training like cyclioergometer, walking or using a treadmill, according to patients’ capacity or preferences. Adherence of the rehabilitation program was measured regarding the performance of at least 80% of the sessions prescribed. Patients are contacted twice a month. At one year, a follow-up will be performed. Conclusions: All the selected patients were elected for treatment. Patients have a significant limitation of their functional capacity, associated with moderate quality of life and moderate symptoms. An improvement in these parameters or at least a slowdown in their progression is expected.

- Vulnerability: concept analysis protocolPublication . Cunha, Diana; Jorge, Sara; Silva, Raquel MarquesThe high complexity of the vulnerability concept demands permanent update. Vulnerability has been studied by social and human sciences as a phenomenon that affects people (richer or poorer) (1). It is particularly important that the nursing discipline studies the concept, to achieve better caring. This work’s structure is inspired by Rodgers' concept analysis phases.

- Strategies to improve patient's experience in the hospital setting: a scoping review protocolPublication . Jorge, Sara; Cunha, Diana; Marques, RaquelIntroduction: Patient's experience: set of interactions resulting from an organizational culture, which influence the patient, in care throughout time. It is through the unique patient’s experience that the quality of care provided is revealed and it can be used to target quality improvements. Since Donabedian’s work in 1980, the definition of healthcare quality has been the center of debate and has undertaken considerable changes. Quality of care is defined as having three domains: Patient safety; Clinical effectiveness; Patient experience. Hospitals with good quality performances have better clinical results, decreased use of services, reduced healthcare-associated infections, greater compliance, safety culture, higher profitability. Patient experience has three domains: effective communication; respect and dignity; emotional support. (Can be modified by factors that influence patient’s experience by affecting their needs, expectations, values). This protocol used the methodology proposed by Joana Briggs Institute (JBI) for the conduct of scoping reviews as a framework. Aim: To map and analyze the evidence on strategies to improve the patient’s experience in the hospital setting. Guiding question: What strategies have been implemented to improve patient’s experience in the hospital setting?
- Predição de úlceras por pressão através de instrumentos de inteligência artificial em unidades de cuidados intensivos: protocolo de scoping reviewPublication . Alves, José; Azevedo, Rita; Marques, Ana Jorge; Alves, PauloAs úlceras por pressão (UP) representam um desafio significativo nos cuidados de saúde, com impacto na qualidade de vida dos indivíduos e nos sistemas de saúde. Apesar de muitas vezes preveníveis, estas lesões continuam representadas por uma elevada prevalência, especialmente em unidades de cuidados intensivos (UCI). A identificação eficaz dos indivíduos em risco é crucial, porém os instrumentos tradicionalmente utilizados têm múltiplas limitações, o que justifica o desenvolvimento de novos métodos para abordar esta questão. A inteligência artificial pode oferecer uma abordagem dinâmica e inovadora para identificar indivíduos em risco e, consequentemente, contribuir para a prevenção de UP em UCI.
- Custos associados à prevenção das úlceras por pressão em adultos: revisão sistemática da literaturaPublication . Silva, Raquel Marques; Simões, Nuno A. F.As úlceras por pressão (UPP) são um evento adverso sério e dispendioso nos cuidados de saúde (Whitty et al., 2017). A sua prevenção é um direito universal (GNEAUPP/SILAHUE, 2011), com impacto na qualidade de vida das pessoas e custos elevados na sua prevenção e tratamento (EPUAP/NPIAP/PPPIA, 2019). Objetivo: Identificar os custos associados à prevenção de UPP em adultos.
