Predicting the obstetric work-load.

Abstract

The daily variation in the work-load of a maternity unit during 1982 was analysed. The data fitted the Poisson distribution quite well, which suggests that future work-loads can be predicted by this method. Other clinical data of a similar kind should be amenable to the same analysis.
