Anesthesiologists can help provide unique solutions to improve operating room efficiency, according to an abeo blog post.
Some of the ways in which anesthesiologists can help achieve improved OR efficiency:
1. Introducing an OR team "huddle" at the start of shift each morning.
2. Streamlining the incoming OR patient's preoperative tests and patient information flow.
3. Implementing best practices for increasing OR utilization and decreasing unnecessary downtime, such as working through the rationalizing of the block time system and communication with the right staff members.
