Our clinical service department, perioperative care, had several long-standing issues that needed resolution. Many seemed to revolve around OR delay starts, yet data were necessary to validate the scope of the issue. A systematic program review was planned to evaluate services delivered. 2. A systematic analysis of delay starts revealed that the following factors were involved: anesthesia delays (including insertion of invasive lines), inadequate space or staff to meet needs, incomplete workup or patient preparation, scheduling changes due to incomplete scheduling information or room/equipment not ready, physician not immediately available, patient delays, and emergency cases in progress. 3. An interdisciplinary work team was recruited to assist in resolving this identified factor. The overall issue of delay starts, the focus of the work team, and the plan of approach were reviewed. A problem was identified and corrected. Twelve months later, a formal review of delay starts demonstrated an 80% reduction in delays from scheduling information.</p>","PeriodicalId":76746,"journal":{"name":"Today's OR nurse","volume":"17 2","pages":"5-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18603449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With today's emphasis on horizontal and vertical integration of patient care services and the new initiatives prompted by these challenges, OR nurses are considering new methods for managing the perioperative period. One such method is the critical path. 2. A critical path defines an optimal sequencing and timing of interventions by physicians, nurses, and other staff members for a particular diagnosis or procedure, designed to better use resources, maximize quality of care, and minimize delays. 3. Hospitals implementing path-based patient care have reported cost reductions and improved team-work.

The primary bioethics principles, which are evidenced in the analysis and discussion of organ donation are: autonomy, beneficence, justice, and utility. 2. Organ donation encompasses a variety of ethics-laden issues ranging from invalidation of individual rights to the accepted criteria for donation. However, any of these issues can be categorized as relating to procurement, consent, and allocation. 3. The application of bioethical principles is integral to the decision-making process involved in organ-donation issues. It is the responsibility of nurses, physicians, ethics committees, and organ-procurement organizations, as well as the donors, recipients and their respective relations, to understand and determine which principles support a proposed decision on organ donation or allocation. 4. Human beings must discover and utilize valid principles in order to make effective ethical decisions in difficult or complex situations.
