Base de dados no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS): estudo do sistema no Prontuário Eletrônico do Cidadão (PEC) no contexto da recuperação da informação.

Abstract

Information science in the field of Library Science addresses the topic of Databases in the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS): a study of the system in the Citizen's Electronic Health Record (PEC) in the context of information retrieval. The main question guiding this research is: how to work on information retrieval from health records on the semantic web and its storage in the DATASUS database and other SUS systems? This question aims to investigate best practices for dealing with the growing amount of data generated in the context of public health, considering the pros and cons of databases regarding their storage, linked to the SUS, and the retrieval of dated information. The main objective of this study is to analyze information retrieval from databases and investigate current practices in this area, especially within the context of public health. The specific objective is to evaluate the performance of the PEC as an integral part of the health information system. The PEC is an important tool for organizing and accessing citizens' health information, both for professionals and for the users themselves. Furthermore, the role of Library Science in organizing this information is explored. Library Science plays a crucial role in managing and organizing the vast amounts of information produced daily, ensuring that it is easily accessible and usable, both in terms of retrieval and the ease of use of the semantic web in databases. Finally, this work also analyzes information retrieval in electronic health records in collaboration with the Data Processing Center (CPD). This analysis includes aspects such as the efficiency of information retrieval systems, the accuracy of the retrieved information, and the ease of use of the systems for end users. In short, the topic proposes a deep and comprehensive analysis of current information retrieval practices in the context of the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS), focusing on the Electronic Health Record (PEC) and its storage. Through this investigation, we seek to contribute to the improvement of these practices and to the development of more efficient policies in health information management, resolving the problems within the semantic web along with the storage of DATASUS databases and its SUS systems.
