HLT-010 — Synthetic Hospital Resource Usage Dataset (Sample Preview)
A free, schema-identical preview of the full HLT-010 commercial product from XpertSystems.ai.
A fully synthetic hospital operations dataset combining operating room schedules, staffing/workforce records, biomedical equipment utilization, daily capacity metrics, and facility master data across mixed facility types (academic / large community / medium community / critical access). Calibrated to AHA Annual Survey 2023, AORN benchmarks, NSI nursing data, ECRI Institute equipment data, and CMS Conditions of Participation.
⚠️ PRIVACY & SYNTHETIC NATURE Every record in this dataset is 100% synthetic. No real patient data, no PHI, no real facility identifiers, no real surgeon or staff NPIs. Population-level distributions match published AHA / AORN / NSI / ECRI benchmark sources but the facilities and operational events are computationally generated.

Limitations & honest disclosures
- Sample is preview-only. 3 facilities × 14 days × ~35K operational records is enough to demonstrate schema and calibration, but is not statistically sufficient for facility-level capacity planning models or season-aware forecasting. Use the full product (50+ facilities × 365 days) for serious work.
- Sample includes 3 facility types (academic + large + medium), not all 4. The
critical_accessfacility type is not represented at n=3 due to random sampling. The full product reliably covers all 4 types. - OR utilization runs slightly below the headline AHA target. Sample mean is ~70% vs AHA 78.4% pure target. This is partly because mixed facility_mix includes community facilities (which average lower OR utilization) and partly small-N effects at 3 facilities × 14 days. The full product hits the AHA target at scale.
- Equipment downtime runs slightly elevated (5.1% vs ECRI 4.2%). The generator's age-based
failure_multiplierproduces realistic but somewhat-higher-than-target downtime for aging assets. Reflects real-world equipment fleet aging — production hospitals with younger fleets see lower rates. - PACU utilization clips at 1.0. The generator caps PACU utilization at 100% rather than allowing over-capacity. At busy academic centers, real PACU congestion exceeds capacity (queue forms) — this is hidden by the cap.
- Staff IDs are synthetic random integers. No real NPIs, no real practitioner identifiers. Surgeon IDs are equally synthetic.
- Equipment IDs are synthetic identifiers, not real GUDID device IDs.
- Block-schedule data is daily-aggregated, not minute-level. The full product can be extended with minute-level block scheduling for highly-detailed OR room optimization.
- No real ICD-10 / CPT case data joins. Case types are categorical groupings (Orthopedic, Cardiac, etc.) — the full ICD-10/CPT/MS-DRG joins are in the companion HLT-005 hospital admission dataset.
- Synthetic, not derived from real hospital operations data. Distributions match published AHA/AORN/NSI/ECRI references but do NOT reflect any specific real hospital.
