Simulation is used to investigate the effects on hospital occupancy of the number of beds in the facility, the percentage of patients who are emergencies, the percentage of elective patients who are scheduled, and the average lengths of stay of emergency and elective patients. A practical method is presented for estimating the optimum size of a short-term hospital on the basis of expected demand, and use of the results in planning is discussed.
模拟被用于研究医院设施中的床位数、急诊患者百分比、已安排的择期患者百分比以及急诊和择期患者的平均住院时间对医院床位占用情况的影响。本文提出了一种基于预期需求估算短期医院最佳规模的实用方法，并讨论了如何将结果应用于规划。
