برنامه‌ریزی و زمان‌بندی دو هدفه اتاق‌های عمل و بخش استریل ابزارهای جراحی قابل استفاده مجدد با رویکرد بهینه‌سازی استوار سناریو محور

برنامه‌ریزی و زمان‌بندی اتاق‌های عمل و تجهیزات موردنیاز از ابعاد هزینه‌ای، اجتماعی و اصول بهداشتی برای مدیران بیمارستان بسیار حائز اهمیت است. چراکه اتاق‌های عمل یکی از منابع درآمدی بیمارستان‌هاست که می‌توانند خدمات موردنیاز بیماران اورژانسی که به‌صورت تصادفی وارد می‌شوند و بیماران انتخابی که جراحی‌شان از قبل برنامه‌ریزی را ارائه نمایند. ازآنجاکه برخی وسایل مورداستفاده در اتاق‌های عمل برای هر بار استفاده نیازمند استریل شدن هستند و در دنیای واقعی با توجه به دلایل مختلف نظیر شرایط جسمی هر بیمار، مدت‌زمان جراحی‌ها دقیقاً غیرقطعی هستند، در این پژوهش، برای اولین بار، علاوه بر در نظر گرفتن عدم قطعیت زمان‌های غیرقطعی جراحی برای بیماران اورژانسی و انتخابی، یک مدل ریاضی یکپارچه دو هدفه استوار سناریو محور ارائه می‌گردد. در این مدل، ضمن حداقل سازی هزینه اتاق‌های عمل، بخش استریل و جریمه‌های تاخیر در جراحی، زمان تکمیل آخرین عمل نیز حداقل می‌شود. حل مسائل با ابعاد متفاوت و تحلیل حساسیت‌های مختلف همگی تاییدکننده اعتبار و صحت مدل از دیدگاه مدیران بیمارستان‌ها می‌باشند.

multi-objective planning and scheduling of operating rooms and sterile section reusable surgical devices with a scenario-based robust optimization approach

planning and scheduling operating rooms and required equipment is very important for hospital managers from the perspective of cost, social, and health principles. because operating rooms are one of the sources of income for hospitals that can provide the services needed by emergency patients who arrive randomly and elective patients whose surgery is preplanned. since some tools used in operating rooms need to be sterilized each time, and in the real world, due to various reasons such as the physical condition of each patient, the duration of surgeries is uncertain, in this research, as well as considering the uncertainty of surgery times for emergency and elective patients, a robust scenario-based integrated mathematical model with two objective functions is presented. in this model, in addition to minimizing the cost of operating rooms, sterile section, and penalties for delay in surgery, the competition time of the last operation is minimized. solving several problems and different sensitivity analyses confirmed the validation of the presented model from the viewpoint of the hospital managers.introduction the healthcare system is one of the most important topics that has attracted the attention of researchers and hospital managers. two significant elements of healthcare systems are patients and hospitals, and their planning and scheduling are necessary for providing better services. hospital managers aim to minimize costs or maximize profits while considering service times. operating rooms are often the most critical sections of the hospital. since life and death issues are at stake in the operating rooms, even the slightest delay or lack of resources can endanger human lives. therefore, careful planning and scheduling of operating rooms and their resources is especially important. additionally, to prevent potential hospital infections, the sterilization of reusable medical instruments is essential for every operation. furthermore, patients can be broadly categorized into two groups: emergency patients who arrive randomly, and elective patients whose surgeries are preplanned. planning and scheduling operating rooms, along with the required equipment, is of utmost importance for hospital managers, taking into account cost, social factors, and health considerations. some items used in operating rooms need to be sterilized after each use, which incurs both time and cost.
