Geospatial Inefficiencies Associated With Digital Replantations at High-Volume Centers and Optimal Allocation Model for Centralization of Replantations

Digit replantation can improve dexterity, functionality, patient satisfaction, and pain following amputation, but rates continue to fall nationally. This study aimed to describe the effects of travel time and distance as barriers to high-volume hospitals, identify geospatial inefficiencies in the presentation of patients to replantation care, and provide an optimal allocation model in which cases are redistributed to select centers to reduce...
