É inegável o papel dos avanços tecnológicos para o fortalecimento da saúde. No tocante às tecnologias digitais, trata do uso crescente dos sistemas de informação e análise de dados em saúde nas ações de preparo, vigilância e resposta a surtos epidemiológicos, tema abordado neste artigo no contexto da pandemia provocada pelo vírus Sars-CoV-2 no estado do Rio Grande do Norte. Este estudo parte do pressuposto de que é possível potencializar a gestão da resposta à covid-19 por meio da saúde digital. Assim, a pesquisa desenvolveu um Ecossistema tecnológico que integra diferentes sistemas de informação para atender as necessidades previstas nas normativas internacionais frente à pandemia. Este artigo descreve, além do Ecossistema e sua estrutura, um conjunto de análises sobre a aplicação desse dispositivo por diversos atores institucionais. O Ecossistema foi a principal ferramenta em uso no estado para o processo decisório em resposta à covid-19, sendo um modelo para a intervenção de saúde digital no Sistema Único de Saúde. A experiência do Rio Grande do Norte reúne, portanto, elementos que contribuem para os estudos sobre resiliência de sistemas e análises de políticas públicas em saúde em situações de emergência.

Abstract:
The role of technological advances in strengthening health is undeniable. Regarding digital technologies we can mention the growing use of information systems and data analysis for health in the preparedness, surveillance and response to epidemiological outbreaks, a theme addressed in this article in the context of the pandemic caused by the Sars-CoV-2 in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. It was assumed that it\'s possible to enhance the management of the response to covid-19 through digital health. Thus, a technological ecosystem has been developed by the team which integrates different information systems to meet the needs provided by international standards against the pandemic. In this article is described, in addition to the ecosystem and its structure, a set of analyzes on its application by institutional actors. The ecosystem was the main tool used for decision-making by the institutions of the state in response to covid-19, which constitutes a model for digital health intervention in the National Health System of Brazil. Therefore, the experience in Rio Grande do Norte brings elements that, together, contribute to studies on resilience of health systems and analysis of public health policies in emergency situations.
