Resumo
No Brasil, são geradas 290 mil toneladas de resíduos sólidos hospitalares (RSH) por ano. A gestão desses resíduos representa um desafio significativo para os hospitais, visto que demandam logística, organização, gerenciamento e recursos para o descarte correto. Com o crescimento da geração de resíduos durante e após a pandemia da Covid-19, verificou-se o despreparo de hospitais, Estado e empresas privadas sobre esse tema. Diante disso, foram identificadas oportunidades científicas sobre RSH a partir de uma Revisão Sistemática da Literatura, no qual selecionou-se os 30 artigos mais relevantes indexados na base de dados Scopus. Em seguida, identificou-se as lacunas científicas dos trabalhos selecionados, agrupando-os em cinco Clusters, sendo elas: Desenvolvimento de Sistemas para a Gestão de Resíduos de Saúde; Tecnologias para Minimização e Tratamento de Resíduos; Impacto Ambiental dos Resíduos Hospitalares/EPIs; Logística de Coleta e Gerenciamento de Resíduos; Estratégias de Gerenciamento e Avaliação de Resíduos. Esse trabalho contribui teoricamente para a literatura com o destaque dos tópicos de desenvolvimento de gestão de RSH em diferentes áreas, e, na prática, serve de referência para os hospitais, com abordagens de melhoria logística, desenvolvimento de protocolos e de tecnologias para a melhoria dos processos.
In Brazil, 290 thousand tons of hospital solid waste (HSW) are generated annually. Managing this waste poses a significant challenge for hospitals, as it requires logistics, organization, management, and resources for proper disposal. With the increase in waste generation during and after the Covid-19 pandemic, the unpreparedness of hospitals, the State, and private companies on this issue became evident. Consequently, scientific opportunities related to HSW were identified through a Systematic Literature Review, selecting the 30 most relevant articles indexed in the Scopus database. The scientific gaps of the selected studies were then identified and grouped into five Clusters: Development of Systems for Health Waste Management; Technologies for Waste Minimization and Treatment; Environmental Impact of Hospital Waste/PPE; Waste Collection and Management Logistics; and Waste Management and Evaluation Strategies. This work theoretically contributes to the literature by highlighting the development topics of HSW management in different areas and serves as a practical reference for hospitals, providing approaches for logistical improvement, development of protocols, and technologies to enhance processes.
