Introducing FRAM as a tool for surgical process modeling: a case study for understanding surgical scheduling complexity

INTRODUCTION: Surgical processes are inherently variable leading to unexpected delays and cancellations. Due to inefficient and outdated processes, there is a need to understand and improve potential bottlenecks. However, traditional surgical process models (SPMs) focus on intrao...

Expanding research on clinical agent data to a virtual space of location, time, and context: exploration of data structures and limitations using a pragmatic digital twin

Abstract Introduction: Fragmented healthcare data and the inflexible structure of current hospital information systems (HIS) hinder the routine use of data for research and process optimization. Conventional HISs often fail to represent physical resources, spatial relationships,...
