Jiménez-Barros Ingeniería Health Review Application Decision Making The contributions of Operations Research (OR) in the healthcare field have been extensively studied in the scientific literature since the 1960s, covering decision support tools with operational, tactical, and strategic approaches. The aim of this article is to analyze the historical development of the application of OR models in healthcare. The application trends for optimization, planning, and decision- making models are studied through a descriptive literature review and a bibliometric analysis of scientific papers published between 1952 and 2016. An upward trend in the usage of operational models is observed with the predominance of resource optimization approaches and strategic decision-making for public health. 2017 artículo científico 0012-7353 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=49650911022 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/496/49650911022/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/496/49650911022/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/496/49650911022/49650911022.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/496/49650911022/movil 10.15446/dyna.v84n201.57504 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=496 Dyna application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Dyna (Colombia) Num.201 Vol.84
