The practice of evidence-based medicine has been gaining ground in the most diverse health institutions and consequently in the work of their health professionals. Thus, the Clinical Decision Support Systems appear, which aim to ensure that health professionals are supported with the best evidence in order to improve the clinical decision-making process, reducing the occurrence of adverse events through the availability and sharing of quality information by health professionals. Business Intelligence (BI) and Business Analytics (BA) technologies are increasingly being used to extract knowledge and turn it into useful information and analytical tools for healthcare professionals. This article is part of a dissertation that has as main objective the extraction of knowledge from the hospital data of the obstetrics service in Centro Materno-Infantil do Norte (CMIN) from Centro Hospitalar Universitário do Porto (CHUP) with focus on the area of clinical decision.
