“…In hospital management, simulation has been applied for the analysis and optimization of pathway and workflow planning [35], optimization of patient flow [36] and resource planning [37]. In the OR setting, simulation methods have been also utilized, mainly to improve the OR scheduling [38]- [42] and the patient flow [7], [30], [43]. A detailed review of OR scheduling and planning using DES and other simulation techniques as well as mathematical models can be found in [44].…”
