Prognosis support systems are one of the contemporary medicine’s great contributions to the practice of this profession, due to their usefulness in prevention, prediction, individualization and participation of the patient in decision-making, even for auditing purposes. In the case of postoperative complications, the application of these supporting systems to the clinical method makes it possible to increase diagnostic certainty and therefore the quality of medical care. The objective of this article is to specify, by means of questions and answers, the characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of the prognosis aid systems used in the postoperative period for the prediction of those complications, as well as the benefits of the application of a system recently validated in a multicentric study, which draws on the best available evidence for the benefit of patient safety.
