Abstract
GONZALEZ CAMACHO, Beyda; MORENO MARTINEZ, Francisco L. and DUENAS FERNANDEZ, Raúl. Optimization of the surgical programming in cardiocentro "Ernesto Che Guevara" through a mathematical model. RCIM [online]. 2016, vol.8, suppl.1, pp.572-581. ISSN 1684-1859.
Health informatics has experienced a great progress in recent years, that is why most of these services require software and mathematical models for its proper functioning; for example, in planning cardiovascular surgeries. This article is about improving and adaptation of the method proposed by Pradenas and Matamala to the conditions of Cardiocentro "Ernesto Che Guevara" from Villa Clara, Cuba. The obtained model guaranties the prioritization of those patients with greater severity of their illness; thus, total number of surgeries will have a proportional distribution for each provinces, according to the number of inhabitants. This mathematical model allows resolving the difficult situation in which it has been working for some years.
