Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than one billion people in the world are obese, and this number is still increasing. When this disease becomes a high risk to the individual's health and the non-invasive approach does not result in weight loss, it is usual to resort to an invasive intervention, bariatric surgery. Due to all the specifications, as well as the multidisciplinary treatment inherent to this procedure, the need for a specialized environment emerges. In this context, the main objective of this topic focuses on the development of a platform for registration and monitoring of bariatric surgery. For this purpose, a web platform was created, which integrates openEHR forms for the registration of appointments regarding this intervention, and uses openEHR modeling to build the interoperable template. The development of this project aims to provide greater ease and speed in patient care, assisting health professionals in their daily lives.
