ABSTRACT
Resumo O artigo objetiva explorar a conceituação da gestão da clínica visando à compreensão dos diversos sentidos que poderão ser atribuídos a essa expressão. Essa discussão tanto pode contribuir para o planejamento e a organização dos serviços de saúde voltados para a gestão da clínica, quanto no estabelecimento de princípios para a elaboração de ações nessa área. Metodologicamente, o estudo consiste numa revisão bibliográfica de cunho qualitativo, com descritores da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS). Em termos de resultados, destacam-se sete temas que sintetizam a análise das fontes: gestão, promoção da qualidade, monitoramento ou auditoria clínica, educação, responsabilidade, segurança no cuidado e dimensão sistêmica. Conclui-se que a variação de sentidos relaciona-se à forma como os autores dos estudos revisados expressam ou desdobram os componentes conceituais estruturantes amplamente aceitos como governança clínica. Observase que falta um maior foco em discussões sobre o planejamento e as políticas relacionadas à governança clínica.
Abstract The article aims to explore the concept of clinical management, with a view towards understanding the diverse meanings that could be attributed to that expression. This discussion can contribute to the planning and organization of health services geared to the management of clinical practices, as well as to set forth principles to draft actions in that field. Methodologically, the study consists of a qualitative literature review, using keywords of the Virtual Health Library (VHL). In terms of results, seven topics stand out that synthesize the analysis of sources: management, quality promotion, clinical monitoring or auditing, education, responsibility or accountability, safety in care and a systemic dimension. The conclusion is that the variation of meanings relates to the way in which the authors of the studies reviewed express or unfold the structuring conceptual components broadly accepted as clinical governance. What we observe is a lack of a greater focus on discussions regarding planning and policies relating to clinical governance.
