A Stochastic Model for an Optimal Priority Bed Distribution Problem in a Hospital Ward
Operations Research, 1976Ward beds are a primary resource under the control of hospital management. We develop a method for determining an optimum distribution of beds in a ward by assuming that ward patients can be classified into two categories, that admissions follow Poisson distribution, and that length of stay in the ward follows the negative exponential distribution ...

In Canada, acute care refers to the in-hospital treatment of a disease during its initial phases (typically measured in days). Determining how bed availability impacts patient access to care is of great interest to the British Columbia (BC) Ministry of Health Services and to the health service delivery industry worldwide.

The use of bed distribution and service population indexes for hospital bed allocation.
Health services research, 1984To provide an empirical base for bed reallocation within a hospital planning jurisdiction in Canada, this article proposes a population-based method to measure the distribution of acute care beds for each district and the service load for each hospital.

Medical Care, 1980
The Hospital Survey and Construction Act of 1946, commonly known as the Hill-Burton Act, was intended to improve the supply, distribution and quality of general hospital beds across the United States. Some also saw the program as a means of affecting the supply and distribution of physicians.

Bayesian Modeling of Hospital Bed Occupancy Times using a Mixed Generalized Erlang Distribution
2003Abstract In this paper we model the distribution of length of stay in hospital of geriatric patients. We assume that length of stay has a mixed generalized Erlang distribution and, given data from patients in a geriatric ward of a London hospital, reversible jump methods are used to estimate the predictive distribution of length of stay ...

MEASURING THE INEQUALITY OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF HOSPITAL BEDS IN 1977-2014 IN TURKEY
2016Even though ‘money does not buy hapiness’ is a known cliche, it is an undeniable reality that in a country in which economical growth takes place, higher living standards are provided. In 1960’s the life expectancy was determined to be 50,5, as time passes the expectancy has been in an increasing manner, in 1990’s it was 66 while in 2015 it reached to ...

In the context of healthcare reforms in post-socialist Serbia, this research analyses the reconfiguration of acute care hospitals from the aspect of the spatial distribution of hospital beds among and within state-owned hospitals. The research builds a relationship between the macro or national level and the micro or hospital level of the spatial ...

Biomedical instrumentation & technology, 1990
The authors describe a novel system for sensing and displaying the distribution of contact pressure caused by a patient's lying on a hospital bed. The system includes a flexible, pressure-sensitive mat, electronics to activate the mat, a small computer to process data, and a color video display.
