Item Herramienta de análisis multicriterio: Un apoyo para la evaluación de tecnologías sanitarias en instituciones hospitalarias(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2019) Montaño Saac, Leydi Tatiana; Bermeo Varón, Leonardo AntonioThe development of new technologies for health care, hospital and clinical support, has generated great impact on health and its costs, in that sense aspects such as clinical effectiveness and safety, economic impacts, the technical characteristics of these innovations, should be properly evaluated before being introduced into clinical practice. This article develops a tool for the Evaluation of Health Technologies in an institution in the city of Cali, using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique. Following this method, the domains and criteria based on the HH Core Model of the EuHTA were identified, which were used to build the hierarchy tree and the evaluation matrices, which allowed to obtain the priority autovectors. The evaluation of the domains and criteria was carried out by experts in charge of decision making in the institution. The verbal evaluations were interpreted numerically according to the Saaty scale. A series of matrices were constructed with each of the assessments of the decision makers, in order to obtain the priority vectors necessary to weigh the different alternatives of fetal monitoring equipment. The implementation of this tool contributed to the standardization of the evaluation processes in the institution and allowed decisions to be made more objectively, there is still the possibility of improving the tool in such a way that its use is easier by the institution's personnel.
