Abstract

ABULATIF, Lisandro Iusry  and  GRUPO TECNICO DE PARCEIROS DO PROJETO VIDA NO TRANSITO. Data Integation Process: an information management model for multiple databases on traffic accidents in Brazil. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2018, vol.27, n.2, e2017160. ISSN 1679-4974.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5123/s1679-49742018000200018.

Objective:

to describe the management process for multiple traffic accident database integration applied in five state capital cities piloting the Life in the Traffic.

Methods:

This is a descriptive study presenting the integration of traffic accident data for the year 2012 provided by multiple institutions and linked with data from the Mortality Information System Information and the Hospital Information System.

Results:

integration of data from multiple institutions, creation of a single list of traffic accident victims and reclassification of accidents as serious or fatal. There was also an average increase of 87% in relation to the total number of victims counted before the use of the integration process.

Conclusion:

the results suggest that the Data Integration Process provides good results and can be adopted by other cities that need reliable information about traffic accidents to inform the planning, monitoring and evaluation of road safety actions.

Keywords : Information management; Information Systems; Data Sources; Accidents, Traffic; Mortality Registries.
