Wie viele Patientenschleusen braucht mein OP-Bereich?

Abstract

There was no linear correlation between the number of transfer rooms and the number of ORs. The shorter the average duration of surgery, the earlier an additional transfer room is required. Thus, hospitals with shorter duration of surgery and fewer ORs may need the same or more transfer rooms than a hospital with longer duration of surgery and more ORs. However, with respect to an economic analysis, the costs and benefits of installing additional OR transfer rooms need to be calculated using the profit margins of the specific hospital.
