Operating Room Management focuses on optimizing the efficiency, safety, and coordination of surgical suites. It encompasses efficient scheduling, dynamic resource allocation, and smooth workflow between clinical teams, support staff, and equipment. Core practices include real-time scheduling systems, preoperative briefings and postoperative debriefings, and consistent use of safety protocols such as surgical checklists to enhance patient safety and reduce errors. Advanced approaches apply predictive analytics and AI to estimate surgery durations, anticipate cancellations, and forecast staffing needs—minimizing downtime and maximizing room utilization. Integration with clinical systems like electronic health records (EHR), imaging devices, and monitoring tools enables instant access to patient data, improving coordination and reducing interruptions during procedures. Strong emphasis on safety includes meticulous infection control, ventilation standards, and environment design that support sterile conditions and minimize risks. Effective OR management also relies on stable surgical teams, clear communication, and continuous process evaluations to reduce morbidity, streamline turnovers, and improve overall outcomes. Establishing lean protocols and continuously monitoring performance metrics helps hospitals adapt to demand fluctuations while ensuring high-quality surgical care.
