The perioperative process organization, team collaboration, and the avoidance of disruptive factors had a considerable influence on the progress of the surgeries. Furthermore, differences in terms of staffing and spatial capacities could be identified. Based on the acquired process data (such as the duration for different surgical steps or the number of interfering events) and the comparison of different arthroscopic departments, approaches for perioperative process optimization to decrease the time of work steps and reduce disruptive influences were identified.
