Article Synopsis
  • A pilot study was conducted in a GI endoscopy unit to increase efficiency by applying LEAN management principles.
  • Changes were implemented by a team, including an endoscopist, anesthesiologist, and nursing staff, and significant improvements in efficiency metrics were observed post-implementation.
  • The findings suggest that adopting a systematic LEAN approach can enhance operational efficiency in GI endoscopy units, though further research is needed for broader validation.
