The Local Health Unit (ULS) of Castelo Branco will implement a project to support clinical research, aiming to generate knowledge from data produced during patient care. The initiative seeks to position the institution at the forefront of technological capacity applied to data study for the promotion of Value-based Healthcare.
The TRANSCEND project aims to create conditions for future multicenter collaborations, particularly within the scope of the Beiras Academic Clinical Center and the national research network. Furthermore, it will strengthen the production of evidence from real clinical practice, aligning with the institution's defined strategy.
This strategy includes supporting research activities at the ULS of Castelo Branco, fostering the development of clinical research and real-world data studies. TRANSCEND will enhance the institution's capacity to generate knowledge, ultimately improving the quality, efficiency, and health outcomes.
The project will enable the ULS of Castelo Branco to gain a deeper understanding of the care reality, including population characteristics, care pathways, health outcomes, and resource utilization. Information from clinical practice will be transformed into evidence to support clinical decisions and organizational improvements.
