How many operating rooms are needed to manage non-elective surgical cases? A Monte Carlo simulation study
BACKGROUND: Patients often wait to have urgent or emergency surgery. The number of operating rooms (ORs) needed to minimize waiting time while optimizing resources can be determined using queuing theory and computer simulation. We developed a computer program using Monte Carlo simulation to determin...
