Smart Operating Theatres

Conventional Becomes Smart: The conventional operating theatre has changed already. More flexibility is required, along with the integration of various surgical equipment, which the clinical needs of the modern hospital have driven. The answer is Smart Operating Theatres – a new way of thinking when it comes to modern hospital management.

The operating theatre has been dramatically changed: Minimally invasive surgery means that more equipment has to be integrated and controlled than before, with complex audio-video solutions required in addition to Medical IT, UPS, gases, specialised carts etc.

Health Estates Managers and Engineers are facing challenges in integrating the new technologies whilst having to build in the efficiencies such as flexible use of operating theatres, instead of fixed, dedicated specialisms, all the while having to implement compliance such as HTM 06-01 in the UK and other current regulatory and recommendatory requirements, which continuously and rapidly change. The sheer number of variables increases the risk associated with any operating theatre project.
