GARCIA DELGADO, Beatriz Moraima et al. Importance of the critical factors of intelligence: a case study in biomaterials. Rev. cuba. inf. cienc. salud [online]. 2017, vol.28, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 2307-2113.

The rapid development of information technologies and databases about patent and non-patent literature has granted access to a notable increase in data and information to be processed by managers of programs and research, development and innovation projects in the field of health care. The objective of the present study is to identify the importance of the application of the critical factors of intelligence of the methodology for knowledge management and generation. The methodology was applied to a case study in the field of hydroxyapatite biomaterials. This made it possible to identify the problem and the needs of users, as well as the object and objective of the study to be conducted. The search strategy and the information sources were defined, and identification was made of the need to use patent and non-patent literature. An automated system was used which made it possible to process the patents and their citations. The results of the study were, among others, identification of a positive trend in the innovative activity in the field in comparison with the results obtained by other studies.

Keywords : critical factors; competitive intelligence; biomaterials; R & D & i projects; patents.
