Abstract
This paper presents an approach to support decision making in assigning risk rates for patients of spontaneous demands in the Brazilian Family Healthcare Strategy. This approach was elaborated based on concepts of the Fuzzy Set Theory and AHP - Analytical Hierarchy Process and implemented in a Primary Healthcare Facility in the City of Rio de Janeiro. Thus, the proposed approach can be used as an additional tool to support the work of healthcare professionals, providing further criteria for their decision making.
Keywords: Decision Making, Analytical Hierarchy Process, Systems Engineering, Fuzzy Logic, Healthcare Informatics
