Surgical waiting time remains an important issue regarding access to health care provision. It is considered to be excessive in most OEDC countries (over twelve weeks or ninety days). The development of day surgery has been one of the strategies that proved effective in reducing surgical waiting time. This study aims to establish a correlation between surgical waiting time and the percentage of day-surgery cases, in hospitals with surgical services, in the Portuguese National Health Services, during 2006.
An observational, analytical and ecological study was conducted to establish the correlations existing between surgical waiting time and the percentage of day-surgery procedures realized, as well as associations with other variables, through multivariate and correlation analysis.
A negative, statistically significant Spearman's correlation was observed between the percentage of day-surgery cases and the waiting surgical time for eletive procedures.
手术等待时间仍然是医疗保健服务可及性方面的一个重要问题。在大多数经合组织国家，这一等待时间被认为过长（超过十二周或九十天）。日间手术的发展是被证明在减少手术等待时间方面有效的策略之一。本研究旨在确定2006年葡萄牙国家医疗服务体系中提供手术服务的医院里，手术等待时间与日间手术病例百分比之间的相关性。
开展了一项观察性、分析性和生态学研究，通过多变量和相关性分析来确定手术等待时间与已实施的日间手术程序百分比之间存在的相关性，以及与其他变量的关联。
观察到日间手术病例百分比与择期手术的等待手术时间之间存在负向的、具有统计学意义的斯皮尔曼相关性。
