In the context of digital transformation, Blockchain technology offers a potential solution to the problems of interoperability, data privacy, and resource optimization. This innovative technology has the ability to address these challenges and radically revolutionize health systems. This document will examine the potential of blockchain technology in the healthcare sector and how it can be the key to overcoming current obstacles. The study follows the PRISMA methodology. The review included 10 studies that were selected based on their relevance to the application of Blockchain in healthcare. The studies were primarily focused on the development and implementation of Blockchain solutions in the health sector, with a particular emphasis on areas such as data security, supply chain management, and data sharing. A comprehensive overview of the current state of Blockchain applications in the health sector is provided, including the benefits and challenges associated with its implementation.

Introduction: Health Information Systems (HIS) have been improved to enhance the quality of healthcare. However, adequate computerization of these systems, as demanded by the digital society, requires the adoption of interoperability standards that allow all system elements to be interconnected. Objective: to describe the results provided by the literature on the use of interoperability standards in HIS. Methods: a systematic review was conducted using the PRISMA methodology on the results of the adoption of interoperability standards in HIS. Information was searched in Scopus, Medline, Google Scholar, and SciELO. Then, a selection of the most relevant studies was made, using inclusion criteria. Results: most of the reviewed studies focused on the evaluation of interoperability standards in hospital and institutional environments, with a global interest in such standards. The diversity of standards used and the results obtained demonstrate the importance and significant impact of the implementation of interoperability standards in improving the quality of healthcare systems. Conclusions: the systematic literature review reveals that the implementation of interoperability standards is fundamental to ensure the integration between the components that make up the systems, which in turn contributes to operational efficiency and information security

Innovation is fundamental to organizations' growth, consolidation and success, boosting competitiveness and productivity and facilitating adaptation to changes and market volatility. Based on an in-depth literature review, this article outlines the importance of innovation and presents three fundamental types: radical, incremental, and disruptive. Radical innovation involves significant changes in products, services, or processes, resulting in a drastic transformation in the industry. On the other hand, incremental innovation focuses on continuous and progressive improvements, optimizing operations and performance. Finally, disruptive innovation introduces solutions that disrupt and displace existing ones, creating new markets and transforming industries. The conclusions highlight the relevance of each type of innovation based on the specific needs of organizations and the importance of adopting appropriate strategies to promote sustainable growth and competitive advantage. The study findings found that innovation is essential for the progress and survival of companies, and understanding and correctly applying the different types of the invention is vital to achieving success in a business environment where the only constant changes.

Introduction: When the term artificial intelligence comes to mind, most people intuitively relate it to science fiction, especially those who are older and who had access to books, comics and impactful films on these topics, especially the film based on the story by Brian Aldiss and directed by Spielberg. Methods: A review of the literature was carried out in the month of January 2024 through access to the databases Scopus, PubMed, Dialnet, Scielo, and the search engine Google Scholar version 2022, with the strategies: ((health mental) AND (augmented reality)), ((mental health) AND (technological advances)) and ((medicine) AND (mental health) AND (augmented reality) AND (virtual reality) AND (technology)) and their translations into English language, limited the search to the last 5 years. Results: Virtual reality has its origins in the Second World War, as a precedent for a request from the United States of America to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for it to create a flight simulator that would allow ground training for the navy; which gave birth to virtual reality. In 1960, the first multi-sensor simulator created by Morton Heilin was called Sensorama. Conclusions: Virtual reality has positively influenced the restoration of mental health; Therefore, this development of technology has been a fundamental factor in many moments of scientific and technical development in the health sciences.
