Many patients who present to district (first-referral) level hospitals require surgical treatment for trauma, obstetric, abdominal or orthopedic emergencies. Often surgery cannot be safely postponed to allow their transfer to a secondary or tertiary-level hospital but many district hospitals in developing countries have no specialist surgical teams and are staffed by medical, nursing, and paramedical personnel who perform a wide range of surgical procedures often with inadequate training. The quality of surgical and acute care is often further constrained by poor facilities, inadequate low-technology apparatus and limited supplies of drugs, materials, and other essentials. The mission of the team responsible for Clinical Procedures in the World Health Organization Department of Essential Health Technologies (EHT) is to promote the quality of clinical care through the identification, promotion and standardization of appropriate procedures, equipment and materials, particularly at district hospital level. WHO/BCT has identified education and training as a particular priority, especially for non-specialist practitioners who practice surgery and anesthesia. It has therefore developed Surgical Care at the District Hospital as a practical resource for individual practitioners and for use in undergraduate and postgraduate programs in-service training and continuing medical education programs. The manual is a successor of three earlier publications that are widely used throughout the world and that remain important reference texts: General Surgery at the District Hospital (WHO 1988), Surgery at the District Hospital: Obstetrics Gynecology Orthopedics and Traumatology (WHO 1991), Anesthesia at the District Hospital (WHO 1988; second edition 2000). This new manual draws together material from these three publications into a single volume which includes new and updated material, as well as material from Managing Complications in Pregnancy and Childbirth: A Guide for Midwives and Doctors (WHO 2000).

Ambulatory surgery is a procedure that does not require an overnight hospital stay and is cost effective and efficient. The goal of this research is to develop an ASF operational model which allows management to make key decisions. This research develops and utilizes the simulation software ARENA based model to accommodate: (a) Time related uncertainties - Three system uncertainties characterize the problem (ii) Surgery time variance (ii) Physician arrival delay and (iii) Patient arrival delay; (b) Resource Capture Complexities - Patient flows vary significantly and capture/utilize both staffing and/or physical resources at different points and varying levels; and (c) Processing Time Differences - Patient care activities and surgical operation times vary by type and have a high level of variance between patient acuity within the same surgery type. A multi-dimensional ASF non-clinical performance objective is formulated and includes: (i) Fixed Labor Costs - regular time staffing costs for two nurse groups and medical/tech assistants, (ii) Overtime Labor Costs - staffing costs beyond the regular schedule, (iii) Patient Delay Penalty - Imputed costs of waiting time experienced patients, and (iv) Physician Delay Penalty - Imputed costs of physicians having to delay surgical procedures due to ASF causes (limited staffing, patient delays, blocked OR, etc.). Three ASF decision problems are studied: (i) Optimize Staffing Resources Levels - Variations in staffing levels though are inversely related to patient waiting times and physician delays. The decision variable is the number of staff for three resource groups, for a given physician assignment and surgery profile. The results show that the decision space is convex, but decision robustness varies by problem type. For the problems studied the optimal levels provided 9% to 28% improvements relative to the baseline staffing level. The convergence rate is highest for less than optimal levels of Nurse-A. The problem is thus amenable to a gradient based search. (ii) Physician Block Assignment - The decision variables are the block assignments and the patient arrivals by type in each block. Five block assignment heuristics are developed and evaluated. Heuristic #4 which utilizes robust activity estimates (75% likelihood) and generates an asymmetrical resource utilization schedule, is found to be statistically better or equivalent to all other heuristics for 9 out of the 10 problems and (iii) Patient Arrival Schedule - Three decision variables in the patient arrival control (a) Arrival time of first patient in a block (b) The distribution and sequence of patients for each surgery type within the assigned windows and (c) The inter arrival time between patients, which could be constant or varying. Seven scheduling heuristics were developed and tested. Two heuristics one based on Palmers Rule and the other based on the SPT (Shortest Processing Time) Rule gave very strong results.

With approximately 13.8 million minimally-invasive cosmetic surgeries performed in the United States, and approximately 12.2 million minimally invasive cosmetic treatments performed in 2011, most of these are undertaken in surgeons’ group practice or surgery center locations. The most common as well as the most dreaded complications are presented along with articles presenting “best practice for cosmetic surgery centers. Each topic presents Anesthesia, Infection control, Complication avoidance and management, along with technique video. Some of the topics include: Patient Selection in Outpatient Surgery; Airway Management in the Outpatient Setting; Deep Venous Thrombosis - Prevention and Management; Intravenous Sedation from the Surgeon’s Perspective; Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting; among other relevant issues to the surgeon. Guest Editors are Geoffrey Keyes and Robert Singer, both involved with the Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery and fervent about certified surgeons running ambulatory facilities for best outcomes and avoidance of mortalities and severe morbidities.
