Productivity and Efficiency Growth During Emergency Medicine Residency Training

Productivity and efficiency metrics such as PPH and DTDT data are an essential part of working in an ED. Our study shows that residents improve with number of patients seen per hour over three years but tend to plateau in their second year. Door-to-decision time continued to improve throughout their three years of training.

Abstract

Productivity and efficiency metrics such as PPH and DTDT data are an essential part of working in an ED. Our study shows that residents improve with number of patients seen per hour over three years but tend to plateau in their second year. Door-to-decision time continued to improve throughout their three years of training.
