You have a boarding problem, only 8 treatment spaces and a very poor physical layout. 1 doc, 1 NP, 2 nurses and 1 triage nurse at peak times Exercise: How would YOUapproach this problem if it were YOURED? Overview Queuing Theory Lean Concepts and Tools Hospital-wide flow and the Theory of Constraints 5
6 Queuing Theory - A Simple Queue Customer Arrivals Queue (waiting line) Server Customer Departures Queuing Analysis Arrival Rate (λ ) and Arrival Distribution Avg Wait in Queue (W q ) Avg Number in Queue (L q ) Service Rate (µ ) and Service Distribution Avg Time in System (W ) Avg Number in System (L ) 6
7 Sigma ED Triage - Assumptions 1. The nurse is always on time for the start of her shift. 2. On average, 6 patients arrive per hour. 3. The time it takes the nurse to triage a patient averages 12 minutes (can triage 5 per hour). Will there be waiting??? YES! Sigma ED Triage - Assumptions 1. The nurse is always on time for the start of her shift. 4 patients 2. On average, 6 patients arrive per hour. 3. The time it takes the nurse to triage a patient averages 12 minutes (can triage 5 per hour). Now will there be waiting??? It Depends! 7
8 Sigma ED Triage - Assumptions 1. The nurse is always on time for the start of her shift. 2. On average, 4 patients arrive per hour. Assume 1 patient arrives every 15 minutes. 3. The time it takes the nurse to triage a patient averages 12 minutes (can triage 5 per hour). Assume exactly 12 minutes per patient. Sigma ED Triage - Capacity & Performance arrive1 arrive2 arrive3 arrive4 triage1 triage2 triage3 triage4 4:00 4:15 4:30 4:45 The nurse and patient arrive at 4pm The first triage encounter lasts exactly 12 min The nurse has exactly 3 min of idle time The next patient arrives at exactly 4:15 And so on

12 Sigma ED - Ideal Triage Simulation Queue Behavior as a Foundation of Server Utilization High Utilization Contributes to Queuing 12
13 An example from queuing theory: MICU Utilization and the Patient Rejection Rate Michael McManus, Boston Children s Hospital, Arrival Rate of 10/hour, Service Rate of 12/hour, Server Utilization of 83.33% High Variation Contributes to Queuing No server variation Maximal server variation 13
14 Achieving Lean Flow Principle - To reduce flow time through an individual queue, you must do one of the following: Reduce average rate of arrivals (rationalize, offload) Reduce variation in time between arrivals (standardize) Reduce average service times (eliminate waste) Reduce variation in service times (standardize) Add server capacity or change the timing of server capacity (align) 2012, Jody Crane, MD, MBA, Charles E.

17 Lean Healthcare An operations and process management strategy Derived from the Toyota Production System Focuses on creating patient value, eliminating waste, promoting flow and continuous improvement Key Principles Focus on Processes that deliver Customer Value Value-added An activity in the process that moves the patient closer to wellness Waste Any other activity in the process 2014 Crane, Noon 17
18 Waste TIM WOOD Transportation Unnecessary patient movement Inventory Having more supplies than are necessary (gloves) Movement Walking to various locations to get supplies Covering beds in remote areas Waiting Waiting to be seen Waiting for biopsy or stress test results Over-processing Multiple providers asking the same questions Ordering too many tests Overproduction Monitoring a patient that doesn t need to be monitored Unnecessary ICU admission Defects Rework of lab tests (hemolysis) Repeat visits 2014 Crane, Noon Key Principles Focus on Processes that deliver Customer Value Eliminate waste Promote flow Align capacity with demand Establish clear signals and handoffs Reduce variation Eliminate Queues 2014 Crane, Noon 18

30 Ruraltownville ED Capacity 59 Exercise Ruraltownville ED P60 During peak hours 1. What is the triage nurse utilization if each patient takes 7.5 minutes to triage? (assume all patients are triaged) 2. What is the Nurse Practitioner Productivity in patients per hour if the nurse practitioner is able to see all of the low acuity patients (CTAS 4 and 5)? Give some reasons for the actual productivity of the NP being only 1.4 patients per hr. 3. Calculate the NP utilization in #2 above if he/she spends 20 minutes working on each patient. 4. If the door to bed time was 20 minutes and all patients occupied a bed until they were discharged, calculate the bed utilization based on the current T&R LOS of 200 minutes (assume all patients are discharged) 30
31 1. Triage Nurse Utilization 1 RN Arrival rate (avg peak) = 3.5 pts/hr Service time = 7.5min Service rate = 60 / 7.5 = 8 pts/hr Utilization = (arrival rate / service rate) = 3.5 / 8 = 44% 2. Nurse Practitioner Productivity CTAS 4 = 42.7% and CTAS 5 = 23.0% Total = 65.7% of total volume NP Productivity if able to see all lower acuity patients =.657 x 3.5 pts/hr = 2.2 pts/hr 31
32 3. NP Utilization Arrival rate (avg peak) = 2.2 pts/hr (CTAS 4 and 5) Service time = 20 min Service rate = 60 / 20= 3 pts/hr Utilization = (arrival rate / service rate) = 2.2 / 3 = 73% 4. Bed Utilization Arrival rate (avg peak) = 3.5 pts/hr Service time (in bed) = 180 min (3 hours) Service rate = 1/3 pt per hour Total beds (in ED) = 8 Utilization = Arrival rate / (total beds) x service rate = 3.5 / 8 x (1/3) = 131% 32

34 Any Thoughts? Would you change any of your recommendations from your group exercise? Overview Queuing Theory Lean Concepts and Tools ED and Hospital-wide flow and the Theory of Constraints (TOC) 34
35 Fast Track Scenario You are the ED manager and you are trying to optimize your fast track because your length of stay is too long (3 hours) On average, your fast track sees 4 ESI 4,5 patients per hour during peak times and you consistently have 5-10 patients waiting to be seen Your fast track is staffed by a physician and nurse, and 100% of your patients get x-rays, no lab testing What do you do? Fast Track Scenario Ok, you study the system and your IE returns the following report The process is : Nurse assess Doc assess X-ray Doc d/c Nurse d/c 10 min 8 min 7 min 2 min 5 min Now what? 35
36 Fast Track Scenario Ok, you study the system and your IE returns the following report The process is : Nurse assess Doc assess X-ray Doc d/c Nurse d/c 10 min 8 min 7 min 2 min 5 min Utilizations: Nurse = (10 + 5) = 15 x 4 pts/hr = 60min/hr = 100% Physician = (8 + 2) = 10 x 4 pts/hr = 40min/hr = 66% X-ray = 7 x 4pts/hr = 28min/hr = 47% Fast Track Scenario Utilizations: Nurse = (10 + 5) = 15 x 4 pts/hr = 60min/hr = 100% Physician = (8 + 2) = 10 x 4 pts/hr = 40min/hr = 66% X-ray = 7 x 4pts/hr = 28min/hr = 47% Because the nurse is the constraint, adding more docs or working on x-ray will not improve throughput or performance of the system, throughput can only be enhanced by offloading the nurse How might this be done? 36
37 TOC: The Theory of Constraints Goldratt: The goal of a business is to make money now and in the future. A system s constraints limit its performance or progression toward its goal A resource is either a bottleneck or a nonbottleneck Bottleneck- A resource that has the capacity equal to or less than the demand placed upon it Non-bottleneck- A resource that has a capacity that is greater than the demand placed upon it TOC: The Theory of Constraints An hour lost at a bottleneck is an hour lost for the whole system Time saved at a non-bottleneck is a mirage Efforts spent improving a non-critical bottleneck will not improve the overall performance of your process or system In highly variable systems (i.e. the ED), the bottlenecks can appear to jump around 74 37
38 The Throughput World: The Five Step Focusing Process of TOC Step 1: Identify the System s Constraint(s) Step 2: Decide how to Exploit the System s Constraint(s) Step 3: Subordinate Everything Else to that Decision Step 4: Elevate the System s Constraints Step 5: If a Constraint Was Broken in Previous Steps, Go to Step , Crane, Noon 75 Ruraltownville ED The Fix 2012, X32 Healthcare, LLC, All Rights Reserved 76 38

Approaching ED issues with an eye on process improvement over adding resources will insure you begin developing your community of scientists. TOC can provide the framework for targeting improvement and flow opportunities. 48
