SUMMARY:Incorporating Safe Health Design Framework in The Design of Operati
 ng Theatres
DESCRIPTION:Every second counts in the operating room (OR). As ORs are seei
 ng increasingly more complex procedures\, higher volumes and case mixes\; 
 new OR builds or OR renovations may be necessary to meet the demand and im
 proved delivery of patient care.\n\nIn a study by the American Society of 
 Anesthesiologists (2013) aimed at improving patient care through human-cen
 tered operating room design\, the physical layout of the ORs was determine
 d to be the highest contributing factor that led to disruptions of the per
 ioperative workflow. It is therefore crucial for the ORs to incorporate de
 sign considerations and approaches that will optimize the dynamics in the 
 OR workflow.\n\nIdentifying important design considerations in the plannin
 g phase of the ORs\, such as elements of the room design to:\n\n 	Optimise
  space utilisation of the various work areas\; e.g. patient transfer\, ane
 sthesia work area\, sterile field and circulation pathway\n 	Optimise peri
 operative workflow\, e.g. considerations of specialty ORs such as hybrid O
 Rs\, robotic ORs\, or spine ORs\n 	Flex to various clinical specialties\, 
 e.g. by employing a universal OR room design\;\n\nas well as strategies to
  engage key stakeholders in the OR room design process to reduce costly de
 sign errors – would all have profound impact in enhancing the workflow e
 fficiency\, improved patient outcomes and safety\, and safer OR environmen
 t for both surgical team and patients.\n\nHowever\, there are several fact
 ors hospital leaders need to consider before embarking on redesign of OT. 
 How do we ensure safety is well incorporated into all aspects of the desig
 n? Can renovation time be minimised? What is the cost associated\, includi
 ng on lost operating time\, and how best should ROI be calculated to justi
 fy such projects? Is there an ideal “universal war room design” that i
 s applicable for different types of surgeries? What are some of the equipm
 ent purchase considerations that can help optimise the room design?\n\nReg
