A dedicated minimally invasive surgery (MIS) suite significantly improves operating room (OR) efficiency by reducing setup and breakdown times for laparoscopic procedures. This enhances job satisfaction and patient safety.

Area of Science:

  • Surgical Technology
  • Operating Room Management
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Conventional operating rooms (ORs) require external equipment for minimally invasive surgery (MIS), increasing setup and breakdown tasks.
  • These tasks can decrease OR efficiency and prolong turnover times.
  • A dedicated MIS suite offers permanently installed, on-demand equipment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantify the efficiency improvements of a dedicated MIS suite compared to conventional ORs.
  • To analyze setup and breakdown times in both experimental and clinical settings.

Main Methods:

  • Comparative analysis of preoperative setup and postoperative breakdown times.
  • Experimental setting: Simulated standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and complex laparoscopic sigmoid resection (LS) by OR teams.

  • Clinical setting: Analysis of 66 LCs randomly assigned to conventional OR or MIS suite.

    • Main Results:

    • Experimental setting showed significantly shorter setup/breakdown times in the MIS suite, especially for complex procedures (LC: 2:41 min, LS: 10:47 min).
    • Clinical setting revealed significantly shorter laparoscopic setup and breakdown times in the MIS suite (mean difference: 5:39 min).
    • Overall turnover time was not reduced due to simultaneous tasks by other disciplines.

    Conclusions:

    • The MIS suite significantly enhances interoperative efficiency.
    • Reduced OR nurse workload may improve job satisfaction and patient safety.
    • Overall turnover time reduction was not achieved due to concurrent interdisciplinary tasks.
