The digitized medical records of the SERVINTER CLINICAL SUITE program (HC MEDICA – 2.6) – (Medical Evolution – 2.6.2 (chievomed)) were changedConclusion: The results showed that most of the patients were elderly and male, as well as one of the most common clinical epidemiological characteristics was dyspnea.
