- Comando e Controlo, um potenciador das capacidades da Artilharia AntiaéreaPublication . Loureiro, RicardoO presente Trabalho de Investigação Aplicada tem como finalidade investigar e analisar as capacidades e requisitos que uma Bateria de Artilharia Antiaérea tem, ao nível do Comando e Controlo, para participar em missões no âmbito da Organização do Tratado do Atlântico Norte e em missões no território nacional. A parte prática do trabalho teve lugar no Regimento de Artilharia Antiaérea nº 1, tendo por base, análise de documentos, entrevistas e relatos de experiências pessoais dos militares com experiência de comando de Baterias de Artilharia Antiaérea. Este trabalho inicia-se com a referência ao atual ambiente operacional, às novas ameaças, com particular ênfase para as ameaças aéreas. Faz-se ainda referência ao sistema de Defesa Aérea da Organização do Atlântico Norte e ao Sistema de Defesa Aéreo Nacional, referindo a importância da utilização da Artilharia Antiaérea nos dias de hoje, face às novas ameaças. Com esta investigação, pretende-se identificar quais os elementos necessários ao nível do Sistema de Comando e Controlo das Baterias de Artilharia Antiaérea atuais. Para que possam participar em missões no âmbito da Organização do Tratado do Atlântico Norte, podendo estar integradas no sistema de defesa aéreo do teatro da respetiva missão, e ainda, em missões do território nacional, integrando-se no Sistema de Defesa Aéreo Nacional. No final apresentam-se a respetivas conclusões que resultam desta investigação, para que se possa responder à questão central que deu origem ao trabalho. Concluindo que, o sistema de Comando e Controlo atual da Artilharia Antiaérea Portuguesa não está preparado para atuar, de uma forma integrada, numa missão no âmbito da Organização do Tratado do Atlântico Norte, e, em território nacional apresenta algumas lacunas sendo necessária a implementação de um Sistema Automático de Comando e Controlo, assim como a aquisição de novos radares com capacidade 3D.
- Effectiveness of Caregiver-Provided Individual Cognitive Interventions in Older Adults with DementiaPublication . Silva, Rosa; Bobrowicz-Campos, Elzbieta; Santos-Costa, Paulo; Cardoso, Remy; Bernardo, Joana; Santana, Elaine; Almeida, Inês; Loureiro, Ricardo; Cardoso, Daniela; Apóstolo, JoãoBackground: In a society increasingly committed to promoting an active life in the community, new resources are needed to respond to the needs of citizens with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. The potential of several individual cognitive interventions to be provided by caregivers has been explored in the literature. Objective: To synthesize the best available evidence on the effectiveness of caregiver-provided individual cognitive interventions in older adults with dementia. Methods: Systematic review of experimental studies on individual cognitive interventions for older adults with dementia. An initial search of MEDLINE and CINAHL was undertaken. Another search for published and unpublished studies was performed on major healthcare-related online databases in March 2018 and updated in August 2022. This review considered studies that included older adults with dementia, aged 60 years and over. All studies that met the inclusion criteria were assessed for methodological quality using a JBI standardized critical appraisal checklist. Data were extracted using a JBI data extraction form for experimental studies. Results: Eleven studies were included: eight randomized controlled trials and three quasi-experimental studies. Caregiver-provided individual cognitive interventions had several beneficial effects in cognitive domains, including memory, verbal fluency, attention, problem-solving, and autonomy in activities of daily living. Conclusion: These interventions were associated with moderate improvements in cognitive performance and benefits in activities of daily living. The findings highlight the potential of caregiver-provided individual cognitive interventions for older adults with dementia.
- Experiences with remote communication in adult intensive care units during the COVID-19 pandemic: a systematic review protocolPublication . Cardoso, Ana Filipa; Pires, Miguel Grilo; Cioga, Elisabete; Abalroado, Inês; Santos, Diana; Duque, Filipa Margarida; Loureiro, Ricardo; Felizardo, Helena; Fernandes, António Manuel; Silva, Rosa; Ventura, Filipa; Santana, Elaine; Cardoso, Daniela; Loureiro, LuísObjective: The objective of this review is to explore the lived experiences of critically ill adults, their families, or health care professionals with remote communication in intensive care units (ICUs) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Introduction: Family visiting restrictions in ICUs during the COVID-19 pandemic imposed significant challenges to communication between critically ill adults, their families, and the health care team. Evidence shows that several communication strategies were developed and implemented in ICUs during the COVID-19 pandemic to promote family engagement; however, the experiences of critically ill adults, their families, and health care professionals with these strategies are scattered across primary qualitative studies. Inclusion criteria: This review will consider qualitative studies that include critically ill adults, their families, or health care professionals, focusing on their experiences with remote communication strategies in ICUs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This review will be conducted in accordance with JBI methodology. The search strategy will aim to locate both published and unpublished qualitative studies in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Studies published after January 2020 will be included. Study selection, critical appraisal, and data extraction will be performed independently by 2 reviewers. Data will be presented in narrative format and synthesized using the JBI meta-aggregation process. A ConQual Summary of Findings will be presented
- General data protection regulation: an algorithmic proposal for forensic photographyPublication . Cura, Mariana; Loureiro, Ricardo; Marcelino, Pedro; Rodrigues, Vanessa; Andrade, José PauloSince 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has regulated personal data within the scope of the European Union. With the exponential technological advancements in mobile photography, it is crucial to expose forensic professionals to this body of law to maintain good practices for fieldwork and scientific research in this field. GDPR, as far as its application in forensic photography, can be broken down into four pillars: informed consent of the subject, acceptable image capture practices (data), data storage and security at rest, and data transfers and security in transit. All these pillars have different approaches currently in use by forensic professionals. However, only some of them are permitted under the law. We present the appropriate ways to proceed with smartphone photography while remaining in compliance and maintaining the ability to share data critical to fieldwork and scientific research. In addition, some of the common pitfalls are described. An algorithm is proposed to facilitate compliance with European regulations relating to personal data, as applied to mobile forensic photography. The same flow chart can be used in other countries with different regulations concerning health data, privacy, and security issues.
