Abstract
Anesthesiologist staffing of procedural areas must anticipate locations requiring coverage, typical utilization of those locations, potential emergencies, and the need for provision of care in the after hours. While many dashboards exist for management of key performance indicators (KPIs) in general operating rooms, labor and delivery (L&D) suites are unique and difficult to characterize. In this report we present a novel L&D dashboard that presents relevant KPIs. We found that this dashboard tool is a valuable tool for executive decision-making and can facilitate discussions with hospital leadership and departmental staff.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Medical Systems provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of the increasingly extensive applications of new systems techniques and methods in hospital clinic and physician''s office administration; pathology radiology and pharmaceutical delivery systems; medical records storage and retrieval; and ancillary patient-support systems. The journal publishes informative articles essays and studies across the entire scale of medical systems from large hospital programs to novel small-scale medical services. Education is an integral part of this amalgamation of sciences and selected articles are published in this area. Since existing medical systems are constantly being modified to fit particular circumstances and to solve specific problems the journal includes a special section devoted to status reports on current installations.
