    Area of Science:

    • Healthcare Management
    • Industrial Engineering
    • Surgical Operations

    Background:

    • The operating room (OR) is a complex, high-cost environment critical for healthcare delivery.
    • Effective OR management requires balancing efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and patient safety.
    • Unsustainable costs can arise from inefficient OR operations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review systems engineering applications for improving OR efficiency.
    • To identify key areas within OR management that benefit from systems engineering.
    • To explore innovations for enhancing OR performance.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of systems engineering principles applied to ORs.
    • Analysis of OR scheduling, personnel, and resource management strategies.
    • Examination of orthopedic-specific initiatives and future technological advancements.

    Main Results:

    • Systems engineering offers a framework to increase OR reliability and cost-effectiveness.
    • Optimized scheduling, resource allocation, and personnel management are crucial.
    • Standardization must be balanced with the OR's inherent unpredictability.

    Conclusions:

    • Systems engineering is vital for enhancing operating room efficiency and generating healthcare value.
    • Strategic implementation of systems engineering can reduce OR costs and improve surgical case throughput.
    • Future innovations hold potential for further OR performance optimization.
