    PhD candidate: implementation of digital tools and AI-driven scheduling in the OR - Rotterdam, Nederland - Erasmus MC

    Erasmus MC
    Default job background
    Beschrijving

    Job description

    Optimizing the utilization of OR resources is critical for the sustainability of surgical care. The demand for surgical care is increasing and surpasses the supply, which is unable to grow due to budgetary restrictions and a shortage of operating room staff.

    This PhD position focuses on the implementation, evaluation and scaling up digital tools and AI-driven scheduling in the OR. Technical advances will be intertwined with implementation research to support broad adoption, increase sustainability, and create insights for scaling-up. Therefore, a close collaboration with the other two PhD candidates is necessary.

    Your day-to-day activities will include:

  • Collaborating and engaging with OR staff and technicians.
  • Identifying the facilitators and barriers for the implementations of digital tools (e.g., AI-based image processing, 3D-printing, Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality) and AI-driven scheduling in the OR.
  • Developing implementation strategies for digital tools and AI-driven OR scheduling.
  • Evaluating the implementation, process, and clinical outcomes.
  • Scaling up the use of digital tools and AI-based scheduling in the OR.
  • The result of this project will be an increase in efficiency, safety, and quality of care, and a decrease in perceived workload and healthcare costs.

    Work environment

    This position is part of the Sustainable Health Program 'Smart OR2030' within Convergence Health & Technology. Three PhD positions will be available, which will focus on leveraging technological advancements to optimize the use of surgical care resources and thereby improve the sustainability of surgical care. This project is a collaboration between Erasmus MC, Erasmus University, and Delft University of Technology.

    You will be supervised at the Erasmus University Rotterdam, located at the Erasmus School of Health Policy & Management (ESHPM). As a multidisciplinary faculty, internationally has a strong presence in health technology assessment, health economics, health services & health systems research, healthcare governance, and health insurance.

It is firmly rooted in the world's leading Dutch healthcare system and actively participates in international research projects.

    ESHPM is responsible for a bachelor, pre-master and three (international) master programs on healthcare management, policy, and economics, serving more than 1500 students.
