- Gripenet: O papel de cada cidadão na Vigilância das infeções respiratóriasPublication . GOMEZ TEIXEIRA PINTO, VERÓNICA DEL PILAR; Rodrigues, Ana PaulaO Gripenet é uma plataforma de vigilância epidemiológica baseada em ciência cidadã que visa apoiar a monitorização da gripe e de outras infeções respiratórias na população. Através da participação voluntária dos cidadãos, são recolhidos dados anónimos sobre a ocorrência de sintomas gripais, permitindo complementar os sistemas tradicionais de vigilância em saúde pública. A apresentação aborda os principais objetivos do Gripenet, o seu funcionamento assente em questionários simples e regulares, e o papel central de cada cidadão na recolha de informação em tempo quase real. Destaca-se ainda que a adesão à plataforma é acessível a qualquer pessoa, reforçando a importância da participação individual para a produção de conhecimento epidemiológico e para o apoio à tomada de decisão em saúde pública.
- Health Intervention’s Evaluation – from concept to practicePublication . GOMEZ TEIXEIRA PINTO, VERÓNICA DEL PILARBackground: The InfAct (Information for Action) is a Joint Action of the European Commission’s 3rd Health Programme with the main goal to build a health information system infrastructure for a stronger European Union and to strengthen its core elements. The InfAct Joint Action was developed along 36 months and structured in 10 work packages. Portugal co-led the Work Package 6 (WP6) of this project, which included the development of the proposal of a flagship capacity building programme - the European Health Information Training Programme - and its evaluation. The evaluation objectives included: to evaluate the adequacy of the training programme to the health information needs in the European Member States; to identify possible changes regarding the participants selection process, the training activities and the pedagogical project; and to contribute to the understanding of the potential of the programme to add to available offers in learning on the topics of Public Health information, on the capacity building and behavioural changes in Public Health activities which can be attributed to the course, and of the potential of the programme to contribute to the alignment of health information criteria and procedures between the European Member States. Methods: The evaluation process was developed using an observational descriptive study design using a mixed methodological approach with both document analysis and primary data collected by questionnaires and interviews analysis. Mixed quantitative and qualitative data collection methods and analysis were used. Results: The proposal of the European Health Intervention’s Training Programme seemed adequate to the formative needs and capacities in line with the work performed by the InfAct project. In what concerns about its main thematic areas, it was also aligned with the areas identified in the previous formative needs and capacities mapping. The participants selection process proposed seemed, in general, adequate. The potential of the European Health Information Training Programme proposal to learning, capacity building and behavioral changes at work attributable to the course was considered positive, as well as the potential to the alignment of health information criteria and procedures between European Union Member States. Discussion: In general, we found high consistency between the results obtained from data collected by the techniques used. However, different suggestions for improvement were outlined by the evaluation study population.
- Vaccine effectiveness monitoring in Portugal: Current status and upcoming changesPublication . Machado, Ausenda; on behalf of the Vaccine Effectiveness and Impact studies in PortugalVaccines are one of the main public health interventions, responsible for reducing the incidence of several infectious diseases and their related morbidity and mortality. As such, monitoring vaccine effectiveness and vaccination impact allows the knowledge of the disease reduction due to immunization. Given the extreme importance for accessing the benefits of the vaccine uptake and evaluation of vaccination strategies in changes in vaccination strategies and yearly/seasonal vaccination programmes (influenza, COVID-19), countries (Portugal included) implement specific studies to contribute to knowledge and decision making. This presentation provides an overview of the vaccine effectiveness and impact studies held in Portugal, specifically regarding the adult Immunization.
