In the era of simulation, virtual and mock operating rooms could be created based on different built environment changes (e.g. room size, lighting, layout) with rapid and iterative improvements. Emerging techniques of video recording to evaluate surgeon technical performance 4 and operating room communication 5 , 6 provide important frameworks to connect built environment simulations to ...
With the increasing interest on hospital and surgeon performance, the time is ripe to explore how the operating room could be designed better to improve both. Use of simulation, staged construction, user-centered outcomes and new research collaborations are emerging as useful tools to improve future operating room design.
Dec 7, 2018 · A Hybrid operating room (OR) is an OR that is outfitted with advanced imaging equipment that allows surgeons, radiologists, and other providers to use real-time images for guidance and assessment while performing complex surgeries.
Nov 30, 2018 · State-of-the-art hybrid ORs facilitate provision of a broad range of procedures that are less invasive than traditional surgery and offer faster recovery times for patients. This white paper outlines the design basics for creating these flexible spaces.
Oct 29, 2018 · With this understanding, each team was able to make a complex, multi-phased renovation an achievable end goal. Complicated, high-risk, and time-sensitive. These are just some of the issues that come to mind when renovating one of the most critical functions of a hospital: the surgical suite.
Hybrid ORs allow surgeons to do imaging, biopsy, diagnosis, and surgery all in the same room and remove the need to move a patient between an imaging suite and an OR. 11 Hybrid ORs are usually based around the integration of imaging equipment into the OR. 12 This imaging equipment may include CT, MRI, C-arm fluoroscopy, or others. 12 Because ...
