Resumo: Personal Health Records (PHR) are becoming an important tool for patients to become active participants of their health care and help providers to improve health outcomes and systems performance. However, for PHR to be fully used by individuals it is necessary to understand the value they place on this tool and how can it be designed to improve its usage among patients. Therefore, this study deepens about Portuguese patients’ perception of PHR and which are the motivations for healthy and ill individuals to track their personal health status. A cross-sectional online survey of patients’ perception on PHR conducted to Portuguese citizens showed that although there is a lack of awareness of the concept of personal health records and use of online tools to perform health related activities, there is a positive perception about PHR and willingness to start using it in a near future

No entanto, para que esta ferramenta seja plenamente utilizada pelos cidadãos é necessário compreender o valor acrescentado que os mesmos identificam no Registo Clínico Electrónico Pessoal e como é que o mesmo deve ser desenhado por forma a incrementar o seu uso por parte dos pacientes. Nesse sentido, este estudo centra-se na percepção dos pacientes portugueses quanto ao Registo Clínico Electrónico Pessoal e quais são as motivações para indivíduos saudáveis ou com alguma doença acompanharem o seu estado de saúde. Através de um questionário online sobre a percepção dos portugueses quanto ao Registo Clínico Electrónico Pessoal, concluiu-se que, embora haja uma falta de conhecimento deste conceito e uso de ferramentas online para realizar atividades relacionadas com a saúde, há uma percepção positiva sobre o Registo Clínico Electrónico Pessoal e os inquiridos estão dispostos a começar a utilizá-lo num futuro próximo.Pinheiro, Susana FrazãoVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaSilva, Sara Margarida Navarro Hogan Mateus2016-05-04T12:53:01Z2016-02-1820162016-02-18T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/20050TID:201171996enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:25:47ZPortal AgregadorONG
