Predicting the Number of Open Operating Rooms to Enhance Resource Allocation and Patient Quality of Care

2026-07-01

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: The dynamic nature of surgical demand poses significant challenges in planning and scheduling resources to staff the surgical suite. Uncertainty in workload often leads to conservative upstream resource allocation, resulting in staffing misallocation. We propose a novel metric, the daily maximum number of open operating rooms (ORs), as an interpretable resource demand proxy...
