Average Procedure Time
Mean time from beginning of the procedure to the end, measured in minutes.
Quality Improvement Strategies:
Standardize pre-procedure checklists to ensure readiness and minimize delays.
Promote evidence-based decision-making during PCI to avoid unnecessary imaging or stent use.
Track and trend procedure times by operator and complexity.
Use time-motion studies to map inefficiencies in room preparation, turnover, and procedural flow.
Implement Lean Six Sigma tools to reduce "non-value added" time.
Provide peer comparisons and operator feedback on procedure duration.
