Analysis of utilization data from maternity units in a ten-county region in New York indicates that more small rural maternity units exist in that region than are needed. A mathematical model is used to ascertain optimal unit sizes, and criteria are developed by which units could be combined for more efficient use of facilities.
对纽约一个十县地区产科病房使用数据的分析表明,该地区小型农村产科病房的数量超出了需求。利用一个数学模型来确定最佳病房规模,并制定了相关标准,据此可对各病房进行合并,以更高效地利用设施。
