Abstract(s)
Já no relatório “A Saúde dos Portugueses” feito pela direção geral de saúde (DGS), em
2016, se previa que a meta dos países pertencentes à organização mundial de saúde (OMS) para
2025 de reduzir 25 por cento das doenças crónicas, não ia ser cumprida por Portugal.
Com a instalação da pandemia Sars-Cov-2 em Portugal no início de Março de 2020,
milhares de pacientes, que teriam as suas consultas de seguimento de inúmeras doenças
crónicas diferentes, ficaram sem as referidas consultas. Será que, devido a esta pandemia,
utentes com doença crónica deixaram, quase que totalmente, de ser monitorizados?
A minha hipótese de trabalho assenta precisamente em responder a esta questão,
avaliando, através de um parâmetro bioquímico associado a uma doença crónica num hospital
português se tal se verificou, ou não.
Para tal, fiz um estudo sobre o seguimento de uma população de diabéticos do hospital
Pêro da Covilhã. O estudo foi efetuado através da análise de diversos dados dessa mesma
população. Esses dados foram obtidos através da base de dados do serviço do hospital em
questão. Este trabalho foi efetuado sob a orientação do Professor Doutor Miguel Castelo Branco.
Para alcançar os objetivos foram aplicados os testes estatísticos considerados pertinentes para o
número de doentes e variantes em estudo. A utilização dessa base de dados foi efetuada após
autorização da sua utilização pelas autoridades competentes e com as devidas normas de
proteção de dados.
In the “A Saúde dos Portugueses” made by the general health direction (DGS), in 2016, it was predicted that the goal of the countries belonging to the world health organization (WHO) for 2025 to reduce 25 percent of chronic diseases, was not going be fulfilled by Portugal. With the installation of the Sars-Cov-2 pandemic in Portugal at the beginning of March 2020, thousands of patients, who would have their follow-up appointments for countless different chronic diseases, were left without those consultations. Could it be that, due to this pandemic, patients with chronic illness have almost completely ceased to be monitored? My working hypothesis is based precisely on answering this question, evaluating, through a biochemical parameter associated with a chronic disease in a Portuguese hospital, whether this was the case or not. To this end, I did a study on the follow-up of a population of diabetics at the hospital Pêro da Covilhã. The study was carried out through the analysis of several data from this same population. These data were obtained through the database of the hospital in question. This work was carried out under the guidance of Professor Doctor Miguel Castelo Branco. In order to achieve the objectives, the statistical tests considered relevant for the number of patients and variants under study were applied. The use of this database was made after authorization for its use by the competent authorities and with the necessary data protection rules.
