In Brazil, the number of new cases of syphilis has increased in the general population, and particularly serious among pregnant women and newborns. In this sense, the literature review pointed to a possible difficulty in the analysis of epidemiological data due to the fragmentation of information in the Health Surveillance databases, which can make it difficult to monitor epidemiological diseases, such as Syphilis, in the country. Given this scenario, the objective of this research was to develop a dedicated system of embedded hardware and software, called SVSBOX, with the ability to integrate the various databases of Health Information Systems, optimizing information management and contributing to a reduction of costs in public health services. To this end, a literature review was initially carried out that pointed out a difficulty in the analysis of epidemiological data due to a possible fragmentation of information in the Health Surveillance databases, which can make it difficult to monitor epidemiological worsens, such as Syphilis in the country. Then, a diagnosis was carried out in a sample of the situation rooms indicated by the Secretariat of Health Surveillance - SVS as priorities for coping with syphilis, in order to assess the infrastructure, facilities and equipment available for analysis of epidemiological data in the country. From this diagnosis, the technological proposal to guide the development of SVSBOX was defined. Regarding the results, the diagnosis made showed significant differences in terms of infrastructure, facilities and equipment available for the situation rooms in the different cities investigated, indicating the need to develop a technological solution compatible with the diversity of the situation rooms evaluated. Thus came the proposal for a technological solution, the SVSBOX, a dedicated system programmed to exclusively meet the needs of health surveillance situation rooms, thus avoiding the deviation of functionality of the equipment. About to the development of the tool, the stages of requirements gathering, architecture definition, material specification and software registration were initially carried out. The next steps include: making the prototype, registering a patent and evaluating the product. Although SVSBOX is still in the development stage, this research confirmed the hypothesis that the development of a technological solution to integrate all databases of the Health Information System - SIS can contribute to the optimization of information management within the scope of health surveillance in Brazil.Acesso AbertoSífilisVigilância em saúdeSistemas de informação na saúdeSala de situação em saúdeMonitoramento epidemiológicoSVSBOX: sistema dedicado para vigilância em saúdemasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE
