Abstract

Perioperative care is changing through advances in technology with the aim of maximizing quality and value. Future transformation in care will be enabled by data and consequently by knowledge. This paper describes a knowledge management and data science research project and its results based on a study applied to the perioperative department at Hospital Dr. Nélio Mendonça between 2013 and 2015. Conservative practices, such as manual registry, are limited in their scope for preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative decision making, discovery, extent and complexity of data, analytical techniques, and translation or integration of knowledge into patient care. This study contributed to the perioperative decision making process improvement by integrating data science tools on the perioperative electronic system (PES) assembled. Before the PES implementation only 1,2% of the nurses registered the preoperative visit and after 87,6% registered it. Regarding the patient features it was possible to assess anxiety and pain levels. A future conceptual model for perioperative decision support systems grounded on data science should be considered as a knowledge management tool.
