Health Indicators 2011: Definitions, Data Sources and Rationale, June 2011
AUTOR(ES): Canadian Institute for Health Information
ANO: 2011
RESUMO: This document describes the methodology used to calculate the health indicators produced by the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) and is applicable to the most recent release of indicator data. The methodology used for these indicators was designed to maximize inter-regional comparability given the characteristics of available national data sets. For this reason, there may be differences between definitions, data sources and extraction procedures used in some local, regional or provincial/territorial reports when compared to those described here. In addition, discrepancies may exist due to ongoing updates to databases. Data presented in Health Indicators publications includes the latest updates available at the time of indicator calculation. Indicators are calculated for provinces and territories as well as for health regions. Health regions are defined by provincial governments as areas of responsibility for regional health boards (that is, legislated) or as regions of interest to health care authorities. Health regions with a population of at least 50,000 are featured both in the print publication and e-publication. In addition, selected indicators for health regions with a population ranging from 20,000 to 50,000 are reported in the Health Indicators e-publication.

Health Data Governance: Privacy, Monitoring and Research
AUTOR(ES): OECD.
ANO: 2015
RESUMO: All countries are investing in health data. There are however significant cross-country differences in data availability and use. Some countries stand out for their innovative practices enabling privacy-protective data use while others are falling behind with insufficient data and restrictions that limit access to and use of data, even by government itself. Countries that develop a data governance framework that enables privacy-protective data use will not only have the information needed to promote quality, efficiency and performance in their health systems, they will become a more attractive centre for medical research. After examining the current situation in OECD countries, a multi-disciplinary advisory panel of experts identified eight key data governance mechanisms to maximise benefits to patients and to societies from the collection, linkage and analysis of health data and to, at the same time, minimise risks to the privacy of patients and to the security of health data. These mechanisms include coordinated development of high-value, privacy-protective health information systems, legislation that permits privacy-protective data use, open and transparent public communication, accreditation or certification of health data processors, transparent and fair project approval processes, data de-identification and data security practices that meet legal requirements and public expectations without compromising data utility and a process to continually assess and renew the data governance framework as new data and new risks emerge.

Health Care Quality Indicators Project: pacient safety indicators, Report 2009
AUTOR(ES): Drösler,S.; Romano,P.; Wei,L.
ANO: 2009
RESUMO: This paper reports on the progress in the research and development of the set of patient safety indicators developed by the Health Care Quality Indicators project. The indicators presented here have been recommended by an expert group for further consideration in international reporting on the quality of care on the key dimension of safety. The indicators have been selected by expert consensus, undergone validity testing and have been tested for comparability. While concern remains related to differences in coding and reporting from administrative hospital databases, the rigour with which the indicator work has been undertaken has resulted in the improved ability of countries to report on the quality of care. The work on the development of the patient safety indicators highlights the technical progress made in constructing measures and the ongoing need for methodological improvements. The indicators reported here should not be considered as making inferences on the state of patient safety in countries, but are intended to raise questions towards improving understanding of the reported differences.

Health Care Quality Indicators Project 2006 Data Collection Update Report
AUTOR(ES): Garcia Armesto, S. et al.
ANO: 2007
RESUMO: This report is an update to the OECD Health Working Paper No. 22, Health Care Quality Indicators Project: Initial Indicators Report that was based on data collected between 2003 and 2005 and released in 2006. That report presented the OECDís initial work on developing a set of health care quality indicators that could be used to raise questions about differences in quality of care across countries. The 2006 report covered 21 ìinitial indicatorsî with data provided by 24 countries. It identified 17 of these indicators as being fit for international comparisons of which 4 were identified as needing further work. Following the release of that report in March 2006, the OECD undertook a second round of data collection on the initial indicator set and also gathered data for the first time on new indicators in a questionnaire sent to participating HCQI countries. This paper reports on the results of that second round of data collection. Data is presented here on an augmented indicator set considered fit for the purpose of making international comparisons on quality of health care. The data is comprised of 19 indicators (17 initial indicators plus new ones). The paper also presents the data provided on 7 other indicators that are not yet considered fit for international comparison. In this round of data collection, data were reported by 32 countries.

Gênero, morbidade, acesso e utilização de serviços de saúde no Brasil
AUTOR(ES): Pinheiro, Rejane Sobrino; Viacava, Francisco; Travassos, Cláudia; Brito, Alexandre dos Santos.
ANO: 2002
RESUMO: O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o perfil de morbidade referida, acesso e uso de serviços de saúde em homens e mulheres no Brasil, segundo idade e região urbana e rural. Os dados da PNAD/98 mostram que as diferenças de gênero na morbidade variam com a idade: desfavoráveis aos meninos até os 10 anos e desfavoráveis às mulheres a partir dos 15 anos, aumentando até os 64 anos e reduzindo após esta idade. A alta prevalência de atendimento indica que as barreiras de acesso dos que procuram serviços de saúde são pequenas. No entanto, o elevado percentual de não procura face às necessidades percebidas sugere que as barreiras de acesso são anteriores e dependem da oferta. A cobertura por planos de saúde é bem maior na região urbana, mas não há diferenças de gênero significantes nas regiões. As diferenças entre homens e mulheres nas taxas de uso curativo são pequenas, se comparadas com as de uso preventivo, maiores para as mulheres, assim como as taxas de internação, mesmo excluindo os partos. O financiamento das internações não foi diferente entre homens e mulheres, ao contrário do financiamento de outros tipos de atendimento: maior cobertura por planos para mulheres na região urbana; na região rural, maior uso do SUS para as mulheres e maior desembolso de recursos próprios para os homens.(AU)

Gênero e saúde no Brasil: considerações a partir da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios
AUTOR(ES): Aquino, Estela M. L; Menezes, Greice M. S; Amoedo, Maurícia B.
ANO: 1992
RESUMO: A mulher brasileira tem vivido mais que o homem, como ocorre em países industrializados centrais. Nesses países paradoxalmente, as mulheres apresentam indicadores de morbidade mais altos que os homens. O conhecimento sobre o padräo nacional pode ajudar a compreender os determinantes de sua própria realidade, permitindo antecipar tendências futuras e adequar os serviços de saúde. Com esta perspectiva foi feito um estudo de morbidade, a partir de dados da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios (PNAD/IBGE) de 1986, em dez Estados brasileiros, construindo-se coeficientes de prevalência de morbidade, de demanda e de utilizaçäo de serviços segundo sexo, e padronizados por idade pelo método direto. Como medida dos diferenciais, usou-se razöes entre os sexos. A sobremorbidade feminina foi constante em todas as regiöes. Os diferenciais de uso de serviços apresentaram variaçäo regional, sugerindo relaçäo com a oferta de serviços de saúde. Os diferenciais foram nulos na infância; assumiram seus maais altos valores na idade reprodutiva das mulheres, diminuindo depois dos 60 anos. O padräo foi quase constante em todo o país. Parte do fenômeno pode ser explicada por fatores de ordem metodológica. Contudo, os resultados foram semelhantes aos de outros países. As transformaçöes profundas no padräo reprodutivo e na inserçäo social da mulher brasileira têm seu impacto sobre a saúde e o consumo de serviços ainda näo avaliado. Recomenda-se a realizaçäo de estudos mais específicos que contribuam para a reorganizaçäo do sistema de saúde de modo equânime e universal (AU)

Fontes de pagamento das internações e desempenho clínico: o caso dos hospitais do estado de São Paulo, Brasil
AUTOR(ES): Machado Juliana Pires, Martins Mônica, Leite Iuri da Costa.
ANO: 2016
RESUMO: O objetivo foi analisar o desempenho clínico por meio da aplicação da Razão de Mortalidade Hospitalar Padronizada (RMHP) e sua variação segundo fonte de pagamento da internação e arranjo de financiamento do hospital. Foram utilizados dados secundários e analisadas as causas responsáveis por 80% dos óbitos hospitalares ajustadas por risco. Desempenho pior que o esperado foi observado em hospitais públicos e públicos mistos e em internações SUS (Sistema Único de Saúde). A relação entre fonte de pagamento e RMHP pode indicar diferenças de prática clínica ou de gravidade dos casos. A metodologia aplicada contribui para o acompanhamento da qualidade hospitalar no País, direcionando políticas públicas e regulamentações.
