Inhaltsangabe

This book presents the proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Health Care Systems Engineering (HCSE 2019), which took place in Montreal, Canada, from May 30 to June 1, 2019. The event took place in the mother and child university hospital CHU Sainte-Justine in Montréal, and each session was co-chaired by a discussant coming from the clinical practice.

The conference offered scientists and practitioners an opportunity to discuss operations management issues in health care delivery systems, and to share new ideas, methods and technologies for improving the operation of health care organizations.

Focusing on applications of systems engineering, optimization and statistics to improve health care delivery and health systems, the book covers topics relating to a broad spectrum of concrete problems that pose challenges for researchers and practitioners alike, including hospital drug logistics, operating theatre management, blood donation, home care services,modeling, simulation, process mining and data mining in patient care and health care organizations.

He holds an MS in Industrial Engineering from Sabancı University, and a joint PhD in Industrial Engineering from Politecnico di Milano and École Centrale Paris. His research focuses on applied operations research, and he is currently woking on modeling and solving optimization problems in healthcare operations, scheduling and sequencing, transportation and sustainable operations.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book demonstrates how optimization, system engineering and statistics can help to improve health care provision and health systems. It gathers the proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Health Care Systems Engineering (HCSE 2019), which was held in Montreal, Canada, from May 30 to June 1, 2019. The conference provided an opportunity to discuss operations management issues in health care delivery systems, and allowed scientists and practitioners to exchange their latest ideas, methods and technologies for improving the operation of health care organizations. The event was hosted at the Mother and Child University Hospital CHU Sainte-Justine in Montreal, and each session was co-chaired by a discussant from clinical practice, so as to promote close collaborations with clinicians. The respective chapters cover a broad range of concrete problems that pose challenges for researchers and practitioners alike: hospital drug logistics, operating theatre management, blood donation, home care services, modelling, simulation and process mining, and data mining at patient care and health care organizations.
