Abstrakt: In these moments in which the pandemic seems to have granted a truce, hospitals are beginning to normalize their care activity and data on waiting lists have begun to regain their prominence as they are the object of attention by all interest groups: citizens, the media, politicians and health professionals themselves. An improvement is proposed in the treatment of the information on the surgical waiting list that is usually published based on the analysis of some relevant indicators of it. This proposal can contribute to a better understanding and interpretation of waiting list data at such an important time as the present.
