Abstract
Revamping your clinical pathways to make them even more efficient and effective. Anne Arundel Medical Center's successful total hip/total knee replacement pathway has already slashed length of stay 48%, but officials weren't satisfied. They've redesigned the pathway's documentation process to get consistent data for accurately measuring patient outcomes--and have improved efficiency and patient care and education as well. Find out how the new system works and why there's always room for improvement.
