Article Synopsis
- Increasing economic pressure is driving the need for better optimization of operational processes in surgical operating rooms (ORs), particularly in arthroscopic surgery, to ensure efficient use of limited resources and handle complex workflows.
- A study was conducted that recorded and analyzed perioperative processes from 53 surgeries at a university hospital and 66 at an outpatient clinic, using a newly developed software toolset for detailed workflow analysis.
- The analysis revealed significant differences in performance, with the outpatient clinic consistently performing faster in preoperative and postoperative phases compared to the university hospital.
