Patient flow logistics

2023
Patient flow logistics has to do with the management of patient physical paths/routes within a healthcare delivery organization from the very first access, to the triage towards the most appropriate setting, until the very end phase of discharge and integration with post-acute care.

Simulating hospital patient flows

Journal of the Royal Society for the Promotion of Health, 1998
This case study development has benefited by the use of clear on-screen logic which has facilitated useful discussions between the analyst and end-users. The screen displays enable a realistic depiction of a system to be developed. A simple first model was gradually made more realistic in a step-by-step process involving both analyst and end-users.

Visualising patient flow

2012
We describe the development of a method to distil routinely collected clinical data into patient flow information to aid hospital bed management. Using data from state-wide emergency department and inpatient clinical information systems, a user-friendly interface was developed to visualise patient flow conditions for a particular hospital.

Geriatric-patient flow-rate modelling

Mathematical Medicine and Biology, 1996
We consider the application of a three-compartment mathematical model using difference equations in discrete time to model the flow of patients through departments of geriatric medicine. It has been shown empirically that the time spent in hospital since admission may be described by a two-term mixed-exponential distribution.
