Resumo

JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: A utilização de sistemas de informação que permitem o preenchimento automático de relatórios de anestesia ainda é incipiente no Brasil. O objetivo deste estudo foi validar um sistema informatizado para elaboração de relatório de anestesia. MÉTODOS: O projeto foi aprovado pela Comissão de Ética institucional e desenvolvido em sistema de parceria empresa-universidade (Dixtal, São Paulo, Brasil e Universidade de São Paulo) com financiamento da FINEP (Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos do Ministério de Ciência e Tecnologia). O projeto elaborado teve como premissa a integração ao sistema de informações hospitalares para recuperação de dados referentes à identificação, avaliação pré-operatória e resultados de exames laboratoriais. A versão final do protótipo do sistema informatizado desenvolvido foi submetida à avaliação com relação à aplicabilidade por meio de instrumento semiestruturado, aplicado a 33 médicos, residentes e/ou especialistas em Anestesiologia durante procedimentos anestésico-cirúrgicos realizados em 66 pacientes. Os dados foram avaliados descritivamente. RESULTADOS: O sistema informatizado avaliado foi considerado con fiável por 81% dos participantes, inclusive para cirurgias de grande porte. A maioria dos anestesiologistas considerou o protótipo proveitoso para a realização de pesquisas futuras e capaz de atender às necessidades de confecção de relatório de anestesia, com benefícios para anestesiologistas, pacientes e hospital. O sistema exige treinamento para uso completo e pode ser aprimorado em alguns aspectos. CONCLUSÕES: A validação desse protótipo de sistema informatizado para elaboração de relatório de anestesia mostrou a viabilidade desse tipo de solução para auxiliar os anestesiologistas em suas atividades diárias, aumentando a confiabilidade dos dados. Além disso, na avaliação da aplicabilidade, os anestesistas consideraram que o protótipo poderá ser útil para pacientes, médicos e hospital.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In Brazil, the use of information systems that allows filling out anesthesia reports automatically is still in its initial stages. The objective of this study was to validate an automated anesthesia record. METHODS: This study was approved by the Ethics Commission of the institution; an industry-university partnership (Dixtal, São Paulo, Brazil and Universidade de São Paulo) was developed, and the study received a grant from FINEP (Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos do Ministério de Ciência e Tecnologia). The integration of hospital information systems for recovery of data regarding identification, preoperative evaluation, and laboratorial exams was the premise of this study. The applicability of the final version of the prototype of the automated system was evaluated by applying a semi-structured tool to 33 physicians, residents, and/or anesthesiologists during surgery procedures in 66 patients. Descriptive evaluation of the data was undertaken. RESULTS: The computerized system was considered reliable even for large surgeries by 81% of the participants. The majority of the anesthesiologists considered the prototype of great value for future studies and capable of meeting the requirements of anesthesia reports, bringing benefits for anesthesiologists, patients, and hospitals. The full use of the system requires training and some of its aspects can be improved. CONCLUSIONS: Validation of this prototype of a computerized system for elaboration of anesthesia reports showed the viability of this type of solution to help anesthesiologists in their daily tasks, increasing the reliability of the data. Besides, when evaluating the applicability, anesthesiologists considered that the prototype could be useful for patients, physicians, and hospitals.
