Lean construction aims to transform project management by removing waste and improving productivity, quality, schedules and costs. It draws from lean manufacturing principles to minimize non-value adding activities through tools like target value design, pull scheduling using the Last Planner System, and building information modeling (BIM). Integrated project delivery brings project teams together early through lean contracts to collaboratively design-to-budget and optimize the whole project, rather than sub-optimizing parts. This new approach requires transforming project culture from adversarial to relational and focusing on customer value and continuous improvement.

Fabrication of removable palatal augmentation prosthesis on a complete denture to reduce weight and maintain hygiene
The retention of a palatal augmentation prosthesis (PAP) is negatively affected by its weight thus, making this device as light as possible is important for clinical success.
However, hollowing the device to reduce weight may cause hygiene issues due to moisture intrusion.
An alternative technique with a removable veneer-type PAP for a complete denture was developed.
This resulted in positive outcomes in terms of reducing the weight and maintaining the hygiene of the prosthesis.

Parallel Session 3.2 Innovations in Acute Flow and Capacity ManagementNHSScotlandEvent
Patient flow refers to the movement of patients through the healthcare system. Slow patient flow can negatively impact quality of care and increase costs. When patient flow slows down, more patients are at risk of dying from delays in treatment or medical errors. It also increases costs due to longer lengths of stay, increased use of expensive hospital resources, and less efficient use of staff time. Improving patient flow requires considering the entire patient journey, separating elective and emergency care streams, eliminating unnecessary variability, and ensuring capacity matches demand.
The document discusses the basic workflow of medical practice, which involves a patient having a complaint or illness, a doctor gathering information and determining a diagnosis or approach, communicating with the patient, and prescribing treatment. It then examines how medicine has changed since the days of Charles Dickens, with patients now able to call their general practitioner and have information entered into a computer by the doctor. The document also discusses alternatives to traditional doctor-patient dialogues, such as involving patients more directly through computerized medical histories.

16. Defining “Flow” in Dentistry
• One appointment - all providers
• Continuous treatment
• No gaps between providers

19. Implementing Flow
1. Grouping Activities by Complexity and
Predictability
2. Switching to Flow Scheduling
3. Crossing Functional Barriers
20. Flow: 1 – Grouping Activities
Grouping t t
G i treatments i separate categories b
t in t t i based upon
d
their degree of difficulty (simple vs. complex), and their
cycle time (stable/predictable vs. unstable/unpredictable)
y ( p p )
allowed us to create a consistent scheduling approach.
1.Simple and stable: Treated on the exam day
2.Complex and stable: Might need one additional visit
3. Complex and unstable: Unpredictable, but we try to
condense treatment in as few visits as possible.

25. Synchronization:
1 – Schedule Control
1. Yearly Template: Leveling
Takt time from last year’s data
year s
2. Biweekly Schedule: Precision
Providers adjust their own schedules
3. Daily Schedule: Flexibility
Flow Managers and Providers adjust to short
notice changes
27. 1 – Patient Care Flow Manager
• Supervises the flow of treatment
• Secures JIT service for the next step through
a “Service Kanban”
• Enters the line when needed
• C ti
Continually eliminates waste

28. 2 – Kanban
Directing Providers
towards
“Value Added
“V l Add d
Work”
Away from
“Waste”
29. Lean Thinking: Results
L Thi ki R lt
“In short, lean thinking is lean because it
provides a way to do more with less :
• less human effort
• less time
• less equipment
• less space
while coming closer and closer to providing
customers with exactly what they want.”
