(A) Progressive perioperative care topographical model. (B) Patient journey through the progressive perioperative care model. The figure provided in our manuscript is intended to serve as a pictorial representation, emphasizing the importance of a non-linear topographical configuration and efficient patient flow within the proposed model. We acknowledge that the specific layout shown may not be directly applicable to every hospital, particularly those with existing architectural constraints. However, the core principle of the model—facilitating optimal patient flow and resource utilization—can still be implemented in more traditional ward designs. By intentionally organizing flow streams and processes, hospitals of various configurations can adopt this model to enhance perioperative care.
