Abstract (English): Introduction: In the age of healthcare safety, compliance with checklists and time tracking in surgery continue to be a gray zone in care processes. The technology applied to approach this issue and other scenarios, may contribute to solve a problem that impacts welfare and the healthcare sector economics. Objective: To introduce the design and construction of the MyCheckTime®software that incorporates Toyota's Lean methodology under the concept of Bundles. Materials and methods: Using a conceptual map, 5 measures were incorporated into the bundle; the MyCheckTime® platform was built based on a software code developed in Java8, PHP, Javascript, HTML5, Angular4, MongoDB-MySQL databases, and Docker, Ionic, VertX, Laravel-implemented technologies. Results: A software (MyCheckTime®) was constructed based on an App available for tablets and IOS and Android system-based mobile devices; a web-based platform and a database. The software captures the patient's circuit in the surgical area in real time, and records the times in which the checklists were conducted. Conclusion: MyCheckTime® is a Lean Methodology-based software that potentially enables the surgical team to deliver more efficient, safer, and timely care, allowing real time recording of the patient's circuit in the surgery area.

Abstract (Spanish): Introducción: En la era de la seguridad en la atención en salud, la adherencia a las listas de verificación y el seguimiento de tiempos en el área de cirugía, continúan siendo puntos grises en los procesos de atención. La tecnología aplicada a esta problemática, al igual que otros escenarios, podrá contribuir a solucionar un problema que impacta el bienestar y la economía en el sector salud. Objetivo: Presentar el diseño y construcción del software MyCheckTime® que incorpora la metodología Lean de Toyota, bajo el concepto Bundles. Materiales y métodos: Mediante un mapa conceptual se incorporaron cinco medidas al paquete y se construyó una plataforma llamada MyCheckTime® con un código de software desarrollado en Java8, PHP, Javascript, HTML5, Angular4, bases de datos MongoDB-MySQL y tecnologías implementadas Docker, Ionic, VertX, Laravel. Resultados: Se construyó un software (MyCheckTime®), compuesto por una App disponible para tabletas y móviles con sistema IOS o Android; una plataforma en la web y una base de datos. El software captura en tiempo real el circuito del paciente en el área de cirugía y registra los momentos en que se realizaron las listas de verificación. Conclusión: MyCheckTime® es un software basado en la Metodología Lean que potencialmente permitirá al equipo quirúrgico brindar una atención más eficiente, segura, y oportuna, permitiendo el registro en tiempo real del circuito que el paciente hace en el área de cirugía.
