Parallel processing to reduce turnover time in the operating room: A quality improvement case report

Key Points

• Turnover time was significantly reduced through the implementation of parallel processing techniques, enhancing operational workflow.
• Data showed that turnover time decreased by 15 minutes on average per surgery after introducing these methods.
• The approach involved a systematic quality improvement analysis focused on workflow efficiency in the operating room.
• These findings suggest a potential for broader application of parallel processing in surgical settings to enhance efficiency.
