Surgical Room Protocols

Hello, I’m Dr. Emily Chen, Surgical Coordinator. The operating room is where precision and teamwork come together to save lives. Let’s look at the key protocols that keep every procedure safe and efficient.

Hygiene is the foundation of surgical safety. Every team member must perform a proper surgical scrub, wear sterile attire, and maintain a clean field throughout the procedure.

Before surgery, conduct a safety checklist — verifying the patient’s identity, procedure, and equipment readiness.

Clear communication helps prevent errors and ensures everyone knows their role.

Inside the OR, coordination is critical. Follow aseptic techniques, minimize movement, and maintain focus to protect the sterile field.

By upholding strict safety, hygiene, and teamwork standards, we ensure every operation runs smoothly — and every patient receives the safest care possible.
