Abstract:

The objective was to analyse the federal guidelines for the implementation of health tech-nologies in the Unified Health System (SUS) through the analysis of structuring documents of the SUS and legislation related to the National Policy for the Management of Health Technologies published between 2009 and 2021. A search and ion of documents was carried out and subsequent data extraction, grouped into three categories: structuring regula-tions, recommendations in the evaluation of technologies and recommendations in clinical guidelines. Citations were identified in 38.8% of the ed regulations, mainly related to SUS clinical guidelines, but there is still no document to guide implementation actions. Recommendations related to implementations were identified in 27.1% of the reports and in 66.1% of the guidelines, but without standardization and, in general, with few details, focus-ing on resources and actions necessary for providing the availability of technology, and not on the interventions for implementation. The results confirm the existence of a gap regard-ing concrete actions to guide the implementation process in Brazil, which constitutes an op-portunity for the development models aligned with the reality of the SUS, to be added to the clinical guidelines, allowing the integration between the stages of the technology manage-ment process in Brazil.
