Abstract
Objective: To propose a planned intervention with the use of strategic situational planning (PES) to enable the reimplantation of the safe surgery protocol (PCS) and improve the results of hospital services. Methods: This is an applied research with a qualitative approach carried out along the lines of a problem situation in which the pre-acquired knowledge was used to enable the re-implantation of the PCS based on the identification of the main modifiable causes and described in the critical nodes, by actors directly involved in the PCS application process. Results: With the use of PES, it was possible to align technical knowledge in an organized, didactic, accessible way with the best scientific evidence, and to enable the reimplantation of the PCS in order to guarantee the safety of the surgical patient. Conclusion: Producing scientific knowledge was essential for achieving success in the proposal to reimplant the PCS in the institution. Therefore, unequivocally, PES can be an accessible, viable and effective tool for the implementation of clinical protocols in hospital services.
