Dear Colleagues,
Pensar Enfermagem Journal is pleased to announce the submission deadline for the Special Issue dedicated to Interdisciplinarity, Networking, and Health Care Outcomes has been extended until March 15, 2025.
We invite the academic community, researchers and health professionals to contribute with their studies in this fundamental area for the advancement of scientific knowledge.
Interdisciplinarity and networking are recognized as fundamental pillars in the provision of holistic and effective healthcare in all care settings, such as hospitals, primary health care, home-based hospitalization, care homes, social institutions such as prisons, long-term care facilities and nursing homes.
With an ageing population, health needs are on the rise, and interdisciplinary networking can help to respond to the complexity of this reality. This is a perspective of unequivocal intervention for the common good.
We recognize that people need interdisciplinary care for the best health outcomes. In this way, this special issue of the journal Pensar Enfermagem aims to be a vehicle for disseminating knowledge about the work/provision of healthcare that requires interdisciplinary approaches and the establishment of collaborative networks that integrate different specialties and perspectives. We encourage the submission of original research articles that present relevant results, as well as systematic reviews, theoretical essays and case studies that fulfil these aims. They should be research results that demonstrate this reality and contribute to the optimization of health practices, with particular interest in the optimization of nursing practices.
The following topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Nursing;
- Interdisciplinary Approach;
- Evaluation in Nursing;
- Clinical Research in Nursing;
- Programme Evaluation;
- Self-management;
- Patient-centred care;
- Evaluation of Treatment Outcomes of the Effectiveness of Interventions;
- Evaluation of Therapeutic Intervention Outcomes;
- Interdisciplinary approaches in health;
- Collaborative practices between health professionals;
- Integration of care;
- Networking models for multidisciplinary care;
- Technological innovations in health and their impact on interdisciplinarity.
The full submission instructions are available on the Pensar Enfermagem journal website [https://pensarenfermagem.esel.pt/index.php/esel/index]. At the time of submission, authors should mention in ‘Comments to the Editor’ that this is a submission for the special issue: Interdisciplinarity, networking and results in healthcare.
The deadline for submitting articles is 15th March 2025.
We look forward to receiving your valuable contributions to this special issue and to disseminating scientific knowledge that boosts interdisciplinarity, networking and health outcomes.
Best regards,
Pedro Bernardes Lucas, Marcelle Miranda da Silva, Karla Crozeta Figueiredo
