Objectives:
to evaluate software technical quality for collecting data from patients under palliative care.
Methods:

Eight nurses and eight information technology professionals participated as judges, who evaluated six quality characteristics and 23 subcharacteristics. Items that reached a percentage of agreement greater than 70% were considered suitable.
Results:
the characteristics evaluated by nurses/information technology professionals received the following percentages of agreement, respectively: functional suitability (94%-84%); reliability (100-70%); usability (89.9-66.8%); performance efficiency (95.8%-86.1%); compatibility (95.8-79.6%); and safety (96%-83.4%).
Conclusions:
the software was considered suitable in quality evaluation to offer support to nurses in collecting patient data under palliative care, with the potential to operationalize the first Nursing Process stage.
