    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&lt;p&gt;Background: Elective surgical case cancellation refers to any elective surgical case that is booked&lt;br&gt;
into the operation theatre list on the day prior to surgery, but is not operated upon as&lt;br&gt;
scheduled. Elective surgical case cancellation is common and can have significant adverse effects.&lt;br&gt;
The cancellation of planned surgeries causes prolonged wait times, harm to patients, and is a waste of&lt;br&gt;
scarce resources. Reasons for cancellations are complex because they are related to patients,&lt;br&gt;
organizational issues, and clinical staff.&lt;br&gt;
Objective: -To Assess the frequency, to identify reasons for cancellation and to intervening&lt;br&gt;
potentially avoidable causes of cancellation and observe the impacts of intervention made in St. peter&lt;br&gt;
specialized hospital.&lt;br&gt;
Methods: -The study took place at St. peter specialized hospital. This is a pre and post intervention&lt;br&gt;
study from February1/2010 to May 30/2010 E.C. All adult patients that underwent elective surgery in&lt;br&gt;
operation room with in the study period were including. Total number of cancellations as well as&lt;br&gt;
cause of cancellation was noted.&lt;br&gt;
Implementation: The most feasible intervention was addressing reasons of cancellation due to&lt;br&gt;
shortage of OR material (Guan, cape, drape).&lt;br&gt;
Result: -At Pre intervention period highly cancellation caused by shortage of surgical material (guan,&lt;br&gt;
Cape &amp;amp; drape). Plan was purchased each 100 of OR guan, drape &amp;amp; cape. Now all are ready for work.&lt;br&gt;
Conclusion: Cancellation of surgeries is significant problem in this hospital .Reasons for cancellation&lt;br&gt;
identified was four categories. Whereas only one was selected for intervention in these study after&lt;br&gt;
taking impact, feasibility, cost effectiveness, time constraints into consideration. The highest present&lt;br&gt;
for reasons for cancellation were seen due to shortage of operation room material in pre-intervention&lt;br&gt;
period.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
