Operating Room Scheduling Considering Patient Priorities and Operating Room Preferences: A Case Study
Operating rooms have become the most important areas in hospitals because of the scarcity and cost of resources. The present study investigates operating room scheduling and rescheduling considering the priority of surgical patients in a specialized hospital. The ultimate purpose of scheduling is to minimize patient waiting time, surgeon idle time between surgeries, and penalties for deviations...
متن کاملOperating room planning and scheduling problems: A classification scheme
The increasing interest in the domain of operating room planning and scheduling leads to a proliferation of problem types. The statement and the scope of the particular problems, however, are often unclear. In this paper, we report on a scheme to classify operating room planning and scheduling problems using multiple fields. Each field describes a specific set of characteristics of the particul...
متن کاملOperating room planning and scheduling: A literature review
This paper provides a review of recent research on operating room planning and scheduling. We evaluate the literature on multiple fields that are related to either the problem setting (e.g. performance measures or patient classes) or the technical features (e.g. solution technique or uncertainty incorporation). Since papers are pooled and evaluated in various ways, a diversified and detailed ov...
متن کاملA new heuristic algorithm for the operating room scheduling problem
Due to the great importance of operating rooms in hospitals, this paper studies an operating room scheduling problem with open scheduling strategy. According to this strategy, no time slot is reserved for a particular surgeon. The surgeons can use all available time slots. Based on Fei et al.’s model which is considered to be close to reality, we develop a heuristic algorithm to solve it. The i...
متن کاملEnterprise-wide patient scheduling information systems to coordinate surgical clinic and operating room scheduling can impair operating room efficiency.
A s revenues have decreased, health care systems have instituted intensive cost reduction programs, such as the use of pharmaceutical practice guidelines, to attempt to maintain profitability. After implementing such initiatives, some health care systems are having difficulty in further decreasing costs without sacrificing customer (patient) service. The next generation of process improvement e...
