    Hybrid operating rooms (ORs) improve efficiency but require multidisciplinary collaboration. Integrating magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) into hybrid ORs necessitates specific safety protocols, as detailed in AORN's updated guidelines.

    Area of Science:

    • Surgical Technology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Healthcare Management

    Background:

    • Hybrid operating rooms (ORs) integrate surgical and imaging capabilities to enhance procedural efficiency.
    • These complex environments demand collaboration among diverse medical disciplines for optimal workflow.
    • The integration of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) into hybrid ORs introduces unique safety considerations for patients and staff.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight key recommendations from AORN's updated "Guideline for minimally invasive surgery."
    • To provide guidance on designing and operating hybrid ORs, particularly those incorporating intraoperative MRI.
    • To address critical aspects of hybrid OR configuration, staffing, and risk mitigation.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of AORN's updated "Guideline for minimally invasive surgery."

  • Focus on sections pertaining to hybrid OR design, staffing models, and safety protocols for intraoperative MRI.
  • Synthesis of information relevant to perioperative registered nurses (RNs).

    • Main Results:

    • Hybrid ORs can streamline patient care by minimizing transfers and handoffs.
    • Successful hybrid OR operation hinges on interdisciplinary teamwork and integrated workflows.
    • Specific precautions are essential for managing the safety risks associated with intraoperative MRI in hybrid ORs.

    Conclusions:

    • AORN's guideline offers essential information for personnel involved in hybrid ORs and MRI hybrid ORs.
    • Adherence to the guideline supports the safe and efficient configuration and staffing of these advanced surgical environments.
    • Perioperative RNs are encouraged to consult the full guideline for policy development and procedural updates.
