“…Measured outcome variables were heterogeneous across the included studies. Eight studies reported overall OT e ciency (6, 28, 32,33,36,43,44,50) and eight studies reported overall OT utilisation (27,29,31,39,40,(44)(45)(46). Some studies focused on single process improvement approach in perioperative processes (29-31, 35, 41, 42, 44, 45, 50) but other studies targeted on preoperative time management with multiple approaches (27, 28, 32-34, 36, 37, 39, 40, 43, 46).…”
