ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Centralized management of queues helps to reduce the surgical waiting time in the publicly funded healthcare system, but this is not a reality in the Brazilian Unified Healthcare System (BUHS). We describe the implementation of the "Patients with Surgical Indication" (PSI) in a Brazilian public tertiary hospital, the impact on waiting time, and its use in rationing oncological surgeries during the COVID-19 Pandemic. METHODS: Retrospective observational study of elective surgical requests (2016-2022) in a Brazilian general, public, tertiary university hospital. We recovered information regarding the inflows (indications), outflows and their reasons, the number of patients, and waiting time in queue. RESULTS: We enrolled 82,844 indications in the PSI (2016-2022). The waiting time (median and interquartile range) in days decreased from 98(48;168) in 2016 to 14(3;152) in 2022 (p < 0.01). The same occurred with the backlog that ranged from 6,884 in 2016 to 844 in 2022 (p < 001). During the Pandemic, there was a reduction in the number of non-oncological surgeries per month (95% confidence interval) of -10.9(-18.0;-3.8) during Phase I (January 2019-March 2020), maintenance in Phase II (April 2020-August 2021) 0.1(-10.0;10.4) and increment in Phase III (September 2021-December 2022) of 23.0(15.3;30.8). In the oncological conditions, these numbers were 0.6(-2.1;3.3) for Phase I, an increase of 3.2(0.7;5.6) in Phase II and 3.9(1,4;6,4) in Phase III. CONCLUSION: Implementing a centralized list of surgical indications and developing queue management principles proved feasible, with effective rationing. It unprecedentedly demonstrated the decrease in the median waiting time in Brazil.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: desenvolver e implementar o sistema de gerenciamento de cirurgias contendo a Lista Cirúrgica e Mapa Cirúrgico. Método: este estudo é de natureza exploratória e descritiva do tipo pesquisa metodológica aplicada. A metodologia utilizada baseia-se no processo de desenvolvimento de software fundamentada no modelo de ciclo de vida de desenvolvimento de sistemas de Pressman. Resultados: o sistema foi desenvolvido e disponibilizado em todos os computadores do hospital em sua rede interna. Implementado em todos as áreas cirúrgicas e Centro Cirúrgico. Conclusão: o sistema de gerenciamento de cirurgias disponibiliza informações em tempo real de informações dos pacientes cirúrgicos a todos setores envolvidos com pacientes cirúrgicos


Objectives: to develop and implement the surgical management system containing the Surgical List and Surgical Map. Method: this study is of exploratory and descriptive nature of the applied methodological research type. The methodology used is based on the software development process based on the Pressman system development life cycle model. Results: the system was developed and made available on all hospital computers on its internal network. Implemented in all surgical areas and Surgical Center. Conclusion: the surgical management system provides real-time information on surgical patient information to all departments involved with surgical patients

ABSTRACT

RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar a aplicabilidade do sistema de classificação de cores "Timing of Acute Care Surgery" (TACS) em um hospital público terciário de um país em desenvolvimento. Métodos: estudo longitudinal, retrospectivo, de um único centro, de março a agosto de 2016 e o mesmo período em 2017. Optou-se pela seleção de quatro especialidades cirúrgicas com alta demanda de urgências, as quais foram previamente treinadas sobre o sistema TACS. Para comparação com as classificações prévias de urgência e emergência, emergências foram consideradas como vermelhas e laranjas e urgências como amarelas, com intervalo de tempo ideal para cirurgia de uma hora e de seis horas, respectivamente. Resultados: os procedimentos não eletivos representaram 61% do número total de cirurgias. As classificações vermelha, laranja e amarela foram predominantes. Houve melhora significativa do tempo para a cirurgia na cor amarela após o sistema TACS. Períodos diurnos e noturnos influenciaram os resultados, com melhores resultados durante o período noturno. Conclusão: este é o primeiro estudo que usou o sistema TACS no dia a dia de um centro cirúrgico, e demonstrou que o sistema TACS melhorou o tempo de atendimento das cirurgias classificadas como amarelas.


ABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the applicability of the "Timing of Acute Care Surgery" (TACS) color classification system in a tertiary public hospital of a developing country. Methods: we conducted a longitudinal, retrospective study in a single center, from March to August 2016 and the same period in 2017. We opted for the selection of four surgical specialties with high demand for emergencies, previously trained on the TACS system. For comparisons with the previous classifications, we considered emergencies as reds and oranges and urgencies, as yellow, with an ideal time interval for surgery of one hour and six hours, respectively. Results: non-elective procedures accounted for 61% of the total number of surgeries. The red, orange and yellow classifications were predominant. There was a significant improvement in the time before surgery in the yellow color after the TACS system. Day and night periods influenced the results, with better ones during the night. Conclusion: this is the first study to use the TACS system in the daily routine of an operating room. The TACS system improved the time of attendance of surgeries classified as yellow.
