Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatus to dynamically manage interdependent, variable scheduled procedures are provided. An example method includes calculating a cumulative distribution function (CDF) for task(s) in a healthcare protocol based on a probability density function associated with task duration(s) for the task(s). The method includes determining a plurality of schedule risk states for each task in a healthcare protocol, each schedule risk state associated with an upper specification limit (USL) and a lower specification limit (LSL) along the CDF. The method includes identifying, within USL and LSL for each schedule risk state, setpoint(s) associated with probability(-ies) along the CDF. The method includes monitoring execution of task(s) in the healthcare protocol to identify a transition in schedule risk state according to USL and LSL. The method includes triggering an action to react to an actual or upcoming change in schedule risk state based on setpoint(s) associated with the schedule risk state.
