Abstract
Perioperative medicine is a growing specialty around the world. In this article, we discuss the difficulties of creating a perioperative medicine department and fellowship in a middle-income country with limited resources and with severe challenges in accessing essential surgical and medical care. Our fellows navigate in a personal way to the patient through the institution to optimize resources, reduce waiting times and improve outcomes in high-risk patients Powered
期刊介绍:
The objective of this new online journal is to serve as a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed source of information related to the administrative, economic, operational, safety, and quality aspects of the ambulatory and in-patient operating room and interventional procedural processes. The journal will provide high-quality information and research findings on operational and system-based approaches to ensure safe, coordinated, and high-value periprocedural care. With the current focus on value in health care it is essential that there is a venue for researchers to publish articles on quality improvement process initiatives, process flow modeling, information management, efficient design, cost improvement, use of novel technologies, and management.
