The Role of Patient- and Procedure-Specific Factors on Urology Operating Room Peri-Operative Times

ConclusionsOur analysis is a novel approach to assessing OR efficiency by characterizing the non-operative time a patient spends in the OR. Robotic cases have longer non-operative times and increasing patient complexity prolongs pre-operative time in the OR. Better preparation of complex patients pre-operatively will allow better use of constrained OR resources.
