Abstract

The increase in available ICT infrastructure in hospitals offers cost reduction opportunities by optimizing various workflows, while maintaining quality of care. In this demonstrator-paper, we present a self-learning dashboard, for monitoring and learning the cause of delays of hospital transports. By identifying these causes, future delays in transport time can be reduced.
