Verify the effects of the activity of the Surgery Department of the Hospital of the ASL 2 in Umbria the beginning of the week-surgery, officially activated on the first of the Januarys 2005.

The analysis of the surgical activity for the period 2003-2005 (I° semester) was divided in two groups: the I° formed by the patients with a stay in the week-surgery (from Monday to Friday). The II° formed by those with a stay which includes a Saturday or /and a Sunday. For the patients with a week-surgery stay, it was considerate the total number of stays in the Hospital and the type of stay: emergency or programmed stay; the case-mix. For the ones without a week-surgery it was also considered the admissions and/or discharged on a Saturday and/or Sunday and the average weight of the DRG. The week-surgery patients have progressively increased up to 30,7 % in 2005 (estimate) helping. But the 70% of the surgical activity has still a stay in the Hospital of more than five days, and from the analysis it stands out that only partially this activity could be reconverted to a week-surgery. Even the activation of the week-surgery is demonstrating positive results, the main problems for a better functioning are the management of the emergency cases and the “severe” programmed patients.

Abstract
Verify the effects of the activity of the Surgery Department of the Hospital of the ASL 2 in Umbria the beginning of the week-surgery, officially activated on the first of the Januarys 2005. At the same time we wanted to valuate the possibility to reconvert to the week-surgery the patients with a stay in the Hospital of more than five days. The analysis of the surgical activity for the period 2003-2005 (I° semester) was divided in two groups: the I° formed by the patients with a stay in the week-surgery (from Monday to Friday). The II° formed by those with a stay which includes a Saturday or /and a Sunday. For the patients with a week-surgery stay, it was considerate the total number of stays in the Hospital and the type of stay: emergency or programmed stay; the case-mix. For the ones without a week-surgery it was also considered the admissions and/or discharged on a Saturday and/or Sunday and the average weight of the DRG. The week-surgery patients have progressively increased up to 30,7 % in 2005 (estimate) helping. But the 70% of the surgical activity has still a stay in the Hospital of more than five days, and from the analysis it stands out that only partially this activity could be reconverted to a week-surgery. Even the activation of the week-surgery is demonstrating positive results, the main problems for a better functioning are the management of the emergency cases and the “severe” programmed patients.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
