The subject of the sterile processing department (SPD) issues continues to be heard all over the country on a day to day basis. Excessive SPD workloads. SPD delays due to staffing issues. OR’s being closed down. Surgical site infections Etc, etc ,etc So why is there such a push back on change. Change is needed and it’s needed now. The patient deserves better, they don’t want to know that administration are blocking products which make a difference. Single use is here, single use will grow, and single use will become the go to product, but it has to start now!! #BeSURE #GetSURE

In the fast-paced environment of the operating room (OR), every second is precious. That's why surgical safety checklists are not just a formality—they're a lifeline for both patients and healthcare workers. According to the WHO, using a surgical safety checklist can reduce surgical complications by 33% and mortality by nearly 50%. The three phases of the WHO surgical safety checklist—sign-in, time-out, and sign-out—systematically guide the surgical team through critical checkpoints ensuring thoroughness, aligning the team, detecting potential errors early and enhancing communication. 1. Precision and Preparedness: From verifying patient identity to confirming essential equipment, the checklist leaves no room for oversight or error. 2. Collaboration and Communication: The checklist promotes a culture of accountability by engaging every member of the surgical team. 3. Preventing Complications: By systematically addressing potential risks, the checklists help prevent errors before they occur, ultimately saving lives. 4. Elevating Standards of Care: By prioritizing safety protocols, healthcare facilities demonstrate their commitment to excellence and patient well-being. 5. Time Well Spent: Contrary to misconceptions, implementing surgical safety checklist doesn't slow down procedures—it enhances efficiency and streamlines workflows. In conclusion, surgical safety checklist is an indispensable tool in the OR, saving lives and improving outcomes. They foster precision, accountability and collaboration, elevating standards of care and efficiency without compromising patient safety. #surgery #surgicalchecklist #healthcare

🚨 Did You Know? Delays in the Operating Room Can Affect Patient Safety! 🚨 A new study has found that when elective surgeries start more than an hour late, the risk of major complications rises by 50%. This includes any extra wait time between surgeries, which was found to increase risk as well. Here’s why this matters: ⏱ Longer Waits = Higher Risks: Delays disrupt surgeons’ schedules, increase stress, and may reduce focus—all of which can impact patient outcomes. 💡 Simple Fix: Smoother operating room scheduling and faster turnovers can greatly reduce these risks and make surgeries safer for patients. ✨ Takeaway: Efficient OR management is key to safer and better healthcare for everyone. If you’re in healthcare or know someone who is, share this post to raise awareness of how operational improvements can truly save lives! #PatientSafety #HealthcareEfficiency #SurgicalCare #HealthInnovation #HealthcareMatters

Operating theaters have a variety of equipment to perform surgeries, including: Surgical tables: These tables are adjustable and sturdy to support the patient during the procedure. Surgical lights: These lights provide clear, bright white light to illuminate the surgical site. LED lights are more energy efficient. Anesthesia machines: These machines are vital for keeping patients sedated during the procedure. Patient monitors: These monitors track vital signs in real time. Sterilizers: These devices disinfect surgical tools. Suction machines: These machines remove blood and bodily fluids. Surgical instruments: These include scalpels, forceps, retractors, and scissors. Defibrillators: These devices are used in emergency cardiac situations. Infusion pumps: These devices administer fluids and medications. Drapes and gowns: These maintain a sterile environment. Waste disposal systems: These systems manage medical waste properly. Surgical booms: These devices contain electrical cords to reduce tripping hazards. Equipment management systems: These systems provide storage and easy access to all the surgical equipment. #atheenapandian
