This study aims to identify and cha...
Weight loss in patients with severe obesity after bariatric surgery–the potenti...
Rodrigues, J; Magalhães, V; Santos, MP; Reis, C; Pichel, F; Soares, P; Santos, J; Vilela, SBackground: Despite the potential effectiveness of bariatric surgery in promoting weight loss, a considerable proportion of patients still face the challenge of achieving optimal post-surgery outcomes. The timing of eating, in addition to the content of what is eaten, as well as chronotype and social jetlag (a marker of circadian misalignment), have been implicated in weight regulation. However, the current und...
Predicting Post-Discharge Complications in Cardiothoracic Surgery: a Clinical D...
Santos, R; Ribeiro, B; Sousa, I; Santos, J; Guede-Fernández, F; Dias, P; Carreiro, A; Gamboa, H; Coelho, P; Fragata, J; Londral, ACardiac surgery patients are highly prone to severe complications post-discharge. Close follow-up through remote patient monitoring can help detect adverse outcomes earlier or prevent them, closing the gap between hospital and home care. However, equipment is limited due to economic and human resource constraints. This issue raises the need for efficient risk estimation to provide clinicians with insights into ...

Scaling-Up Digital Follow-Up Care Services: Collaborative Development and Imple...
Azevedo, S; Guede-Fernández, F; Hafe, F; Dias, P; Lopes, I; Cardoso, N; Coelho, P; Santos, J; Fragata, J; Vital, C; Semedo, H; Gualdino, A; Londral, ABackground: COVID-19 increased the demand for Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) services as a rapid solution for safe patient follow-up in a lockdown context. Time and resource constraints resulted in unplanned scaled-up RPM pilot initiatives posing risks to the access and quality of care. Scalability and rapid implementation of RPM services require social change and active collaboration between stakeholders. The...
