Resumo: Social network sites (SNSs) have gained much popularity and attention of academic and industry researchers intrigued by the opportunities they give people to reach others in an easy and timely manner, to exchange and share various kinds of information. As recognition of this fact, there has been a growing attention over the last years in the development of health social networks and their impact on the people. However current health social networks suffer different limitations related with their functionality and usability. Furthermore, the majority of these health social networks only meet present information about treatments and symptoms, and do not are designed for health professionals and researchers. This work presents the implementation of a health social network which aims at filling existing gaps, allowing people to have a direct interaction with the health professionals and the possibility to participate from home in training activities and research studies to improve their recovery. Additionally, offers health professionals and researchers the possibility to create and deploy new types of trainings and assess the impact in the recovery of people. Surveys and usability tests were performed to validate the conceptual and design ideas.

Como reconhecimento deste facto, tem havido uma crescente atenção nos últimos anos no desenvolvimento das redes sociais de saúde e no seu impacto nas pessoas. No entanto redes sociais de saúde atuais sofrem de diferentes limitações relacionados com a sua funcionalidade e usabilidade. Além disso, a maioria dessas redes sociais de saúde só apresenta informações sobre tratamentos e os sintomas, e não são projetados para profissionais de saúde e investigadores. Este trabalho apresenta a implementação de uma rede social de saúde com o objectivo de preencher lacunas existentes, permitindo que as pessoas tenham uma interação direta com os profissionais de saúde e a possibilidade participar desde casa em actividades e pesquisas para melhorar a sua recuperação. Além disso, oferece aos profissionais de saúde e investigadores a possibilidade de criar e implementar novos tipos de exercícios e avaliar o impacto na recuperação de pessoas. Foram realizados questionários e testes de usabilidade para validar as ideias conceituais e de design.Badia, Sérgi Bermudez iDigitUMaVieira, Artur César Nunes2017-07-01T00:30:08Z2014-12-29T00:00:00Z2014-12-29T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.13/1547201623307enginfo: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:RCAAP2022-09-05T12:54:15Zoai:digituma.uma.pt:10400.13/1547Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:04:15.777834Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
