The purpose of this study was to investigate anesthesiologists' workflow in real time.
Anesthesiologists were observed for a total of 60 workdays. All tasks performed during this time were recorded in real time.
The anesthesiologists were shadowed for a total of 517:16:36 hours. The average workday lasted 08:37:17 hours. Overall they spent 28.5% of each workday on indirect patient care, 14.7% on direct patient care and 18.8% on administrative work. Communication took up 19.9% of anesthesiologists' time, breaks and disruptions 15.2% and other job tasks 2.9%.
The results comprise objective data about the workflow and working conditions in anesthesiology. We found support of the large imbalance between the direct patient care and the heavy administrative workload reported by physicians. These results may be useful in future efforts to improve anesthesiologists' working conditions and workflow optimization.
本研究旨在实时调查麻醉医生的工作流程。
对麻醉医生进行了总共60个工作日的观察。在此期间执行的所有任务均被实时记录。
对麻醉医生的跟踪观察时长总计为517小时16分36秒。平均工作日时长为8小时37分17秒。总体而言,他们每个工作日花费28.5%的时间进行间接患者护理,14.7%用于直接患者护理,18.8%用于行政工作。沟通占用麻醉医生19.9%的时间,休息和干扰占15.2%,其他工作任务占2.9%。
这些结果包含了有关麻醉学工作流程和工作条件的客观数据。我们发现医生所报告的直接患者护理与繁重行政工作量之间存在巨大失衡的情况得到了证实。这些结果可能有助于未来改善麻醉医生工作条件和工作流程优化的努力。
