Abstract:
Abstract Operating room fires are rare but devastating events. Guidelines are available for the prevention and management of surgical fires; however, these recommendations are based on expert opinion and case series. The three components of an operating room fire are present in virtually all surgical procedures: an oxidizer (oxygen, nitrous oxide), an ignition source (i.e., laser, “Bovie”), and a fuel. This review analyzes each fire ingredient to determine the optimal clinical strategy to reduce the risk of fire. Surgical checklists, team training, and the specific management of an operating room fire are also reviewed.

Abstract:
The Operating Theater (OT) is one of the most critical and expensive hospital resources since a high percentage of hospitalizations are due to surgery. The main objectives are to perform the operation at the right time without incurring excessive waiting times and to optimize the use of medical resources in order to achieve maximum profitability. Management problems in the (OT) have been identified with well-known problems in the field of manufacturing or transport. This prompted us to look for a model used in industrial applications that would allow us to solve the problems of (OT) process as a whole. We first present the hybrid architectural concepts and the development of the control system for the management of the operating room process in its entirety. We then describe the patient programming function and the associated module algorithm based on distributed artificial intelligence.

Abstract:
Purpose – This paper aims to identify key factors that impact operating room (OR) utilization and evaluate different scenarios on OR performance. Design/methodology/approach – Five months of data were collected. stepwise regression and best subset models were used to select factors and generate regression model for OR utilization. We further used simulation to test the influence of case duration mean, case duration variation, scheduled utilization and first-case delay on OR utilization, OR cost inefficiency and patient wait time on the day of surgery. Findings – The scheduled utilization, case cancellation and add-on cases were the most important factors identified in all models. The larger the case duration variation, the lower the OR cost efficiency and utilization, the longer the patient wait time. First-case delay and turnover times are not critical in OR utilization or cost efficiency. Practical implications – OR management should focus on creating an effective way to manage case cancellation and add-on policy to tackle the change on the day of surgery. In addition, several weeks before the surgery, the management needs to consider how to schedule cases to fit the allocated OR time. Originality/value – In complementary of current OR management, this research assists OR management by identifying the factors that would result in the most significant improvement on OR utilization.

Abstract:
Background: This study is based on management issues within the healthcare sector in Karachi. Specifically, it is focused on managing conflicts in the operation rooms, whereby team performance of Operation Theatre staff directly impacts patients' speedy recovery. Methodology: A quantitative survey was conducted involving the surgeons and Operation Theatre staff in Karachi's community hospitals. A closed-ended questionnaire was used in this study, and the questions mainly focused on the conflicts and management of doctors and staff in the operation theatre. Only those doctors and staff members included in the study who is currently working in the operation theatre division of the hospital. a Pearson correlation analysis was performed to assess the relationships between the factors affecting conflicts in the hospital's operating room. Results: The results indicated that the extent of conflict management is high. Factors include communication, leadership, training, adequate compensation, and role identification as perceived by employees. After performing OLS regression tests, the study found that the variable of miscommunication, the communication gap, plays a crucial role in accelerating disagreements of conflicts in Operation Theatre. Conclusion: A significant positive association between the factors and conflict management is observed. It suggests that operation theatre-related factors are improving with better conflict management practices.

Abstract:
All interactions between people can be considered games with rules and outcomes. However, modern business practices demand that the players in the game go beyond traditional game theory and look at new ways to improve the outcome of the game. Choosing the right strategy is important to a player's success. A new business strategy, “co-opetition,” can be used to increase the value of the game (“create a bigger pie”) through cooperative behavior, whereas competition is used to divided the “pie.” By looking at how the players adopt simultaneous roles such as complementor and competitor the stakeholders in the operating room (managers, surgeons, anesthesiologists, and nursing staff) can apply the principles of co-opetition to improve the overall success of their facility. Such stakeholders can utilize knowledge of how populations act in games to enhance cooperative play. Adopting such a perspective may lead to increases in the satisfaction and morale of those involved with the operating rooms. Increased morale should increase productivity and staff retention and reduce recruiting needs.

Abstract:
Problem definition: We consider two problems faced by an operating room (OR) manager: (1) how many baseline (core) staff to hire for OR suites, and (2) how to schedule surgery requests that arrive one by one. The OR manager has access to historical case count and case length data, and needs to balance the fixed cost of baseline staff and variable cost of overtime, while satisfying surgeons’ preferences. Academic/practical relevance: ORs are costly to operate and generate about 70% of hospitals’ revenues from surgical operations and subsequent hospitalizations. Because hospitals are increasingly under pressure to reduce costs, it is important to make staffing and scheduling decisions in an optimal manner. Also, hospitals need to leverage data when developing algorithmic solutions, and model tradeoffs between staffing costs and surgeons’ preferences. We present a methodology for doing so, and test it on real data from a hospital. Methodology: We propose a new criterion called the robust competitive ratio for designing online algorithms. Using this criterion and a robust optimization approach to model the uncertainty in case mix and case lengths, we develop tractable optimization formulations to solve the staffing and scheduling problems. Results: For the staffing problem, we show that algorithms belonging to the class of interval classification algorithms achieve the best robust competitive ratio, and develop a tractable approach for calculating the optimal parameters of our proposed algorithm. For the scheduling phase, which occurs one or two days before each surgery day, we demonstrate how a robust optimization framework may be used to find implementable schedules while taking into account surgeons’ preferences such as back-to-back and same-OR scheduling of cases. We also perform numerical experiments with real and synthetic data, which show that our approach can significantly reduce total staffing cost. Managerial implications: We present algorithms that are easy to implement and tractable. These algorithms also allow the OR manager to specify the size of the uncertainty set and to control overtime costs while meeting surgeons’ preferences.

Abstract:
Statistical evaluations and revisions of surgical case histories are often difficult since each surgical operation is defined by numerous data. In a traditional surgery-book such revisions are often not homogeneous because reported data are incomplete or inaccurate. Homogeneous and orderly files facilitate rational management and fast, correct research. On the basis of this consideration, we have been studying and proposing a database of surgical operations.

Abstract:
Background: We believe that parental presence before the induction of anesthesia for surgery among children with a cleft palate/lip would be effective in mitigating their preoperative anxiety. Objective: We assessed the states of patients with a cleft palate/lip when their parents accompanied them into operating rooms and clarified their and their parents’ cognition using a questionnaire. Methods: Data were collected via nursing observation when patients and their parents entered the operating room. Furthermore, an anonymous questionnaire was administered to patients and parents after the operation regarding their feelings about parental presence in the operating room. Results: In total, nine patients cried when they entered the surgical room. Furthermore, six patients and three parents reported preoperative anxiety. In addition, eight patients agreed that they were satisfied with the presence of their parents before induction. Conclusion: Approximately half of the patients cried. However, the presence of parents before the induction of anesthesia was effective in reducing anxiety among most patients and their parents.

Abstract:
The Key Skills Management in Operating Room (KSMOR) was a project that assessed key skills, knowledge, procedures and the degree of adaptation of perioperative nurses in operating theatres in the countries of the European Union (EU). Five EU countries participated in data collection. The respondents were perioperative nurses divided into two groups (with experience in operating rooms up to 2 years and over 2 years). The third group consisted of operating theatre managers who participated in the data collection and subsequently evaluated the user-friendliness of the questionnaires used for the data collection. The user-friendliness of the questionnaires was also assessed by all the perioperative nurses participating in the data collection. The majority of respondents from the Czech Republic rated the level of knowledge/skills at a good level, i.e. 2 points ("You are independent, you manage the procedure normally in your daily routine"), even for the group of the respondents with the length of experience in operating rooms up to 2 years. Both the managers and the perioperative nurses assessed the user-friendliness of the questionnaire on skills and knowledge of perioperative nurses positively. The output of the KSMOR project is an electronic version of the questionnaire on skills and knowledge of perioperative nurses, which enables evaluation and training of perioperative nurses not only in basic skills but also in very specific ones according to the particular field. It is also a suitable tool for the operating theatre manager for the management and evaluation of perioperative nurses, planning and support of educational activities and its subsequent integration into the operation of operating theatres.
