In most emergency departments, beds are a hot commodity. But some patients don’t actually need a bed for their treatment – and accurately identifying those people is a low-lift but effective way to increase efficiency without sacrificing care quality, finds a study recently published in the journal Management Science.
The researchers developed a simple decision tree, informed by mathematical and machine learning models, to help staff decide whether a patient truly needs a bed or can be routed to a “vertical processing pathway” – that is, an area where they can be treated sitting up. Many hospitals already have such an area but don’t necessarily have a systematic way to decide which patients are treated there.

'Male comments are completely meaningless': Online reviews have a massive gender divide
Yahoo!, July 31, 2024
It's a familiar experience: You wake up feeling a little off with a slight headache and some sniffles. Or maybe you started on a new medicine, and you've noticed a small rash developing. Looking for some quick answers, you fire up your browser and waltz over to WebMD. This isn't always an advisable move, of course — you're better off consulting your doctor about health questions than you are a website and randos on the internet — but listen, sometimes you just need a quick reassurance that you're not falling apart. Regardless of what brought you there, if you do land in the comments section looking for some minor medical advice, here's one weird trick for getting decent insights: Look at what women are saying, and ignore the men. Seriously.
