Abstract

Hospital inpatient care compromises one of the most demanding services in health institutions for providing a careful and continuous healthcare assistance. Such demands require a constant update of the patients' health record allied with support systems responsible for monitoring their clinical information. In this context, the problem in this study becomes a process of continuous improvement. To define the case study, it was necessary to use research tools such as questionnaires and interviews. With these techniques, it was possible to delineate the state and dimension of the problem. Subsequently, the approach and solution was established and a new web platform for the daily monitoring of patients was proposed focused on nurses. The tool incorporates a real-time data visualization, and a patient record during an inpatient care episode. Moreover, this article also highlights the required adaptability of this platform for each health unit according to needs. With this solution, it is expected to correct many of the problems detected through quantitative results.
