Technological Prospecting for software deposits related to the Management of Hemodynamics Services

Abstract

Objective: To gather information about the scenario of software records deposits for the management of hemodynamic services. Method: Basic strategic, documentary and exploratory research, with a qualitative-quantitative approach, through the technique of monitoring technological prospecting, carried out in two intellectual property databases: INPI and Espacenet. Two search strategies were used with classification of results based on the methodology of Neto and collaborators, distributing the requests for records by title, field of application, title and objective. The following eligibility criteria were applied to the findings correlated with the object of study: reading the title; reading the record summary; application fields linked to: administration; health and industry. Results: We highlight 14 software records with more than 20 programming languages, more than 20 types of programs, 06 application fields, with ownership of records concentrated in companies, followed by educational institutions and individuals. The timeline for the production and improvement of programs aimed at managing health services was established between 2001 and 2020. Conclusion: The present study allowed a precise investigation of the panorama of existing technological resources, even with limitations, establishing a reference for possible innovations and software developments that may indicate resource optimizations, prioritizing demands that address all possible peculiarities of a service relevant to the health system, such as the Hemodynamics Service.
