I started my doctoral studies in September 2022, and I’m currently in my 3rd year.  The title of my research is as follows:

An exploration of evidence-to-action: A study of telemedicine knowledge translation through the development of a research-driven telemedicine tool

Progress is mostly according to plan, and at this stage I’ve completed my 3rd phase of research, and the manuscript is nearly ready for submission to a journal.  I have one more phase of research, along with the dissertation, to complete my doctoral studies.

The current status of each Phase is as follows:

  • Phase 1 Development of the Support tool: A rapid literature review and development of the telemedicine Support tool along with explanatory resources.
    • Output: a publication by World Health Organization.

WHO Regional Office for Europe. (2024). Support tool to strengthen telemedicine: Guidance for telemedicine assessment and strategy development. https://www.who.int/europe/publications/i/item/WHO-EURO-2024-9548-49320-73720 .

  • Phase 2 Expert consensus: a Delphi study to test the constructs of the draft Support tool.
    • Output: a publication in Digital Health.

Selection of criteria for a telemedicine framework for designing, implementing, monitoring and evaluating telemedicine interventions: Validation using a modified Delphi process. DIGITAL HEALTH, 10. https://doi.org/10.1177/20552076241251951

  • Phase 3  State-of-the-art: rapid umbrella review to  synthesis the peer-reviewed evidence and further assess the findings of Phase 1 and 2.
    • Output: a publication near to completion for submission to BMJ Global Health

Katz, C., Ruiz, J.M. & Saigí-Rubió, F. (in progress) The state-of-the-art of the telemedicine implementation architecture: a rapid umbrella review of systematic reviews

 Phase 4 Field-testing – participatory action research in the field to test the implementation of the Support tool

  • Status: Survey currently in the field in Bosnia and Herzegovina

In addition to the above, I have been engaged in various other activities including:

  1. Saigí-Rubió, F., Nascimento, I. J. B. do, Robles, N., Ivanovska, K., Katz, C., Azzopardi-Muscat, N., & Ortiz, D. N. (2022).

Journal of Medical Internet Research, 24(10), e40877. https://doi.org/10.2196/40877
  2. I’m second researcher for a study led by José María Ruiz titled Assessing Clinical and Economic Outcomes of Telemedicine Interventions in Cardiovascular Disease, which is a systematic review and meta-analysis.  First stage of screening will start in November 2024.
  3. I’ve supported the development of Key Performance Indicators for a World Health Organization consultancy (July to November 2024) on telemedicine in the Republic of Georgia
  4. I’m currently undertaking the UOC course Article Writing Workshop (October 2024 to February 2025)
