Optimizing the operating theatre environment
ANZ Journal of Surgery, 2010AbstractThe operating theatre is a complex place. There are many potential factors which can interfere with surgery and predispose to errors. Optimizing the operating theatre environment can enhance surgeon performance, which can ultimately improve patient outcomes. These factors include the physical environment (such as noise and light), human factors

Once a patient has been admitted for surgery, depending upon their pre-operative assessment, they may require a period of optimization in hospital before surgery. Pre-operative optimization will focus the clinical teams on incremental adjustments to baseline physiology and testing to ensure that the patient is in optimal clinical condition prior to ...
