“…Previous research revealed that patient transport efficiency can be investigated with Distributed Situation Awareness (Alhaider et al, 2018(Alhaider et al, , 2020a, a theoretical framework proposed by Stanton et al (2006) for depicting the distribution and exchange of situation awareness (SA) between agents (i.e., human and machines) in complex systems. Alhaider et al, (2020a) presented a descriptive DSA network model combining social, task, and knowledge elements of patient transport to identify deficient SA transactions between agents that appeared to be associated with re-scheduling, cancelations, and delays, thereby prolonging minimum length of the patient journeys.…”
