What Hospitals Should Know Before Building a New OT
Construction of an operating theatre is not only about having machines but also about creating a complete system. Hospitals that are going to build a modular OT in Gujarat need to do a lot of planning right from the beginning. Why Airflow Design Comes First A modular operation theatre isn't just four walls with equipment inside. The air moving through the room plays a direct role in preventing surgical site infections. Laminar Airflow Isn't Optional Ceiling-mounted laminar airflow systems maintain a consistent, filtered air stream over the operating table, pushing contaminants away from the surgical site. Without this, even the cleanest-looking room carries higher infection risk than hospitals realize.
