Improving effect of data-driven multi-dimensional linkage mechanism on the punctuality rates of the first elective surgery and the first major surgery in otorhinolaryngological department
Objective To investigate the impact of data-driven multi-dimensional linkage mechanism (DMLM) on improvement in punctuality rates of the first elective surgery and the first major surgery in the surgery management of otorhinolaryngological department. Methods Firstly,analyzed were a total of 835 first elective surgeries and 175 first major surgeries performed in otorhinolaryngological department of our hospital from February to April 2023,selected from all the done operations during this period as the control group (CG) for summarizing the reasons associated with surgical delay,carried out by a management group set up in our hospital to establish an intervening system with DMLM for improving the punctuality rate of surgery. Then,a total of 702 major surgeries and 137 first elective surgeries were taken as the observation group (OG),performed in otorhinolaryngological department of our hospital as well,from August to April 2023. By the end of the observative period,analyzed in a comparative way were such indexes as the punctuality rate,average starting time,and other related indicators of the first elective surgery and the first major surgery between the two groups to evaluate the levels of improvement in these indicators. Results Following the introducing of DMLM into the surgical management,the total punctuality rate of the first surgeries in otorhinolaryngological department had been elevated from 71.6% to 78.1%(x2=8.35,P<0.05),with the averaged starting time of operations advanced by 14 minutes (t=3.200,P<0.05). Moreover,the punctuality rate of the first major surgeries had been improved from 38.3% to 64.2% (x2=20.7,P<0.001),with the averaged starting time advanced by 47 minutes (t=3.98,P<0.001). Conclusion The data-driven multi-dimensional linkage mechanism can effectively improve the punctuality rates of the first elective surgery and the first major surgery in the surgery management of otorhinolaryngological department,which will be very helpful to enhance the collaborative ability of surgical teams for improving the operational efficiency of the hospital.
