Outpatient laparoscopic cholecystectomy: clinical pathway implementation is efficient and cost effective and increases hospital bed capacity.

18 Jan 2007 BACKGROUND: Outpatient laparoscopic cholecystectomy (OLC) may decrease the use of hospital resources and save costs. In the current study, the effect of implementing a clinical pathway has been assessed in terms of outcome for patients scheduled to ...

Comparison of censored regression and standard regression analyses for modeling relationships between antimicrobial susceptibility and patient- and institution-specific variables.

30 Dec 2005 In order to identify patients likely to be infected with resistant bacterial pathogens, analytic methods such as standard regression (SR) may be applied to surveillance data to determine patient- and institution-specific factors predictive of an ...

Hospital bed surge capacity in the event of a mass-casualty incident.

29 Apr 2005 INTRODUCTION: Traditional strategies to determine hospital bed surge capacity have relied on cross-sectional hospital census data, which underestimate the true surge capacity in the event of a mass-casualty incident. OBJECTIVE: To determine ...

Modification of bed systems and use of accessories to reduce the risk of hospital-bed entrapment.

30 Dec 2004 Despite the long history of hospital-bed use, only in the past decade have bed-related patient-safety hazards, including falls and life-threatening entrapment, been discussed publicly. Entrapment is an event in which a patient is caught, trapped, ...

Trends in hospital bed utilisation in New Zealand 1989 to 2006: more or less beds in the future?

24 Oct 2007 AIMS: Reduction in hospital bed utilisation has been a key factor in controlling costs in recent decades in many health systems, including New Zealand's. This paper has the following aims: to analyse trends in hospital bed utilisation from 1988 to ...

Increasing ICU bed capacity cuts diversions.

30 Aug 2006 A new study demonstrates a real dollar cost to diversions, which can give ED managers added ammunition when lobbying administration for increased bed capacity hospitalwide. Here are some strategies you can use: Point out the demonstrated link ...

A combination of deterministic and stochastic approaches to optimize bed capacity in a hospital unit.

13 Feb 2008 Random number of arrivals and random length of stays make the number of patients in a hospital unit behave as a stochastic process. This makes the determination of the optimum size of the bed capacity more difficult. The number of admissions per ...
