OP-Live-Tool

Many hospitals currently have a great need for optimisation in the operating theatre. The challenges can often be summarised in three central points. First, many interfaces are in need of improvement, especially preoperatively. Secondly, there are often unsuitable duty models, which not only worsen the efficiency of the OR, but also lead to dissatisfaction among the OR staff. And thirdly, it mostly fails due to inadequate OR planning and lack of commitment.

For these challenges we provide you with a tool that gives you answers to the following questions:

• How high is the utilisation of my operating theatres per time of day?
• In which departments is the overrun of core working hours the highest?
• What is the deviation of the first cut in minutes (median) per department or operating theatre?
• How value-added did the operating theatres work in terms of resulting CMP?
• How many inpatient and outpatient operations were performed in a given period and what is the ratio of elective to emergency operations?
