Segurança do paciente: painel para gerenciamento e monitoramento de riscos dos pacientes em uma instituição hospitalar

Abstract

Patient safety is one of the most addressed issues in the health area and is strongly linked to the execution of quality services and monitoring the risks that patients are having at a health institution. In this perspective, this work aims to implement a panel model for patient monitoring, through graphic representation, with data inherent to the main risks that patients are subjected in a hospital environment. The data presented in the panel are automatically updated every five seconds from the records made in the patient's electronic medical record (clinical and surgical protocols, registration of vital signs and scales, checklists, evolution notes, etc.) by all professionals who provide care to the patient. The objective is to be able to contribute to a more effective care, generating alerts and speeding up decision making on behaviors, favoring compliance with the quality therapeutic plan, shorter hospital stay and reducing the cost of care.
