Abstract
Objective: To develop a digital system for the reporting of adverse events (AEs) in a hospital. Methods: Descriptive research of the design, development and implementation of the digital system for AE notification. Results: Implementation of the digital system for AE reporting, built in 5 stages with the participation of nursing professionals. It is structured in 5 areas (Definitions, Event, Consultations, Grants and Administrative) that contain information related to the user and the EA. EA information consists of: general data, medical diagnosis, awareness, type of event, related person, and event information. The Event Information includes the detail of: place, date of incident and notification, general description, risk reduction, type and degree of damage, contributing factors (professional, organization, medication, user-related, work environment/facilities/equipment, external factors, and general commentary). Conclusion: The EA notification system meets the desired requirements related to the characterization of the event, anonymity, voluntariness, systemic approach, statistical analysis, easy to use, provides information for timely management decision-making and lacks punitive intent, which promotes a culture of safety and can be extrapolated to the country's health network.
