Analysis of operation efficiency and resource allocation of clinical departments in a hospital based on data envelopment andlysis / 中华医院管理杂志

Objective:To establish a calculation model for the operational efficiency and resource allocation of clinical departments in hospitals, for references for hospitals to optimize resource allocation.Methods:The informations including hospitalization time, nursing grade, etc. of inpatients admitted by 32 clinical departments in a tertiary public hospital from January to December in 2021 were extracted. A data envelopment analysis method was conducted on the operation efficiency and input edundancy of the departments. The K-means algorithm was used to divide inpatients into 3 categories according to the level of medical workload. Taking the numbers of doctors, nurses and beds as the input indicators, and the numbers of patients in the 3 categories as the output indicators, a BCC model 1 was established to evaluate the efficiency of resources invested by clinical departments into professional human value. At the same time, a BCC model 2 was established with the total number of patients admitted and medical income as the output indicators to evaluate the efficiency of resources invested by clinical departments into economic benefits.Results:A total of 38 147 inpatients were enrolled. There were 14 departments with overall technical efficiency (OTE) =1.000 in the BCC model 1, 10 departments with OTE=1.000 in the BCC model 2, and 8 departments with OTE=1.000 in the 2 models. As for the input redundancy, 6 departments had high input redundancy in the BCC model 1, 11 departments had high input redundancy in the BCC model 2, and 4 departments had high input redundancy in both models.Conclusions:The model established by this study could effectively evaluate the operational efficiency and input redundancy of clinical departments, identify departments with high workload and low economic benefits, and provide reference for the rational allocation of medical resources in hospitals.

Modeling research on the wounded passing through field medical teams using base training data / 军事医学

Objective To calculate the maximum ability of the mobile medical team ( MMT) to treat the wounded in order to provide reference for wartime medical support .Methods The flow of casualties between the main units in an MTT is described,data on training is collected through video analysis and questionnaires , the workflow of each unit above is mod-eled by the method of operational research using WINQSB software , and the theoretical maximum value is obtained .Results The theoretical maximum ability of a typical MMT to deal with the wounded is 322 per day when all the function units are operating at full load .Conclusion Under new circumstances , data on an MMT are different from those in the past .Reason-able organization is needed to increase the efficiency while the amount of evacuation should be maximized .

Research progress in sperm mediated gene transfer technology / 生物医学工程学杂志

With the rapid development of biotechnology, we can change the trait of organism using transgenetic technology. In recent years, there are growing interests in the establishment of sperm mediated gene transfer (SMGT) technology as an effective and convenient method to produce transgenic animals. SMGT technology is a transgenetic method, which is easy in operation and does little harm to the cell compared with the other transgenetic methods. In this review, we expound the background, development, mechanism, operation and application of SMGT.
