What is an outpatient procedure room¶
An outpatient procedure room is a clinical room where minor diagnostic or therapeutic procedures are performed on patients who do not require hospital admission or an overnight stay.
Capacity outputs¶
- OUTPATIENT_PROC_ROOMS
Conversion archetype¶
- appointment utilisation — FRM_APPOINTMENT_UTIL
Operational constraint¶
- Schedulable procedure room time
Activity classification logic¶
Outpatient attendances with a valid procedure code.
| Subgroup | Classification IDs |
|---|---|
| all groups | CLASS_OP_ATTEND, CLASS_HAS_PROCEDURE |
Workload derivation¶
Primary workload object: procedure hours
\[\text{effective procedure time minutes} = \text{procedure time minutes} + (\text{DNA rate} \times \text{DNA time minutes})\]
\[\text{procedure hours} = \frac{\text{attendances} \times \text{effective procedure time minutes}} {60}\]
Capacity conversion¶
\[\text{required op procedure rooms} = \frac{\text{procedure hours}} {\text{annual operational hours} \times \text{utilisation}}\]
Assumptions¶
| Subgroup | Assumption | Category | Assumption ID |
|---|---|---|---|
| all groups | procedure time | workload | OP_PROC_TIME |
| all groups | DNA rate | workload | OP_PROC_DNA_RATE |
| all groups | DNA time | workload | OP_PROC_DNA_TIME |
| all groups | utilisation | operational | OP_PROC_UTIL |
| all groups | annual operational hours | operational | OP_PROC_ANNUAL_OPERATIONAL_HOURS |
Known issues / limitations¶
- Outpatient procedure rooms are modelled as appointment-slot capacity rather than theatre-style procedural lists.
- Procedure durations are represented using a global average because procedure type is not currently visible.
Dependencies¶
- No dependencies.
