Effectiveness of the Semi‐Automated <scp>Post‐ANaesthesia</scp> Discharge Assessment Tool: A Pre‐Post Study Using Propensity Score Matching
The semi-automated PANDA tool was well received by nurses who perceived it as useful and feasible. Given the significant reduction in PACU length of stay, integrating PANDA into clinical practice may enhance post-surgical patient flow and resource allocation, while its main added value lies in improving standardisation, supporting decision-making and PACU workflow.
