Abstract:
Cancelled operations represent a significant burden on the National Health Service in terms of theatre efficiency, financial implications and lost training opportunities. Moreover, they carry considerable physical and psychological effects to patients and their relatives. Evidence has shown that up to 93% of cancelled operations are due to patient-related factors. An analysis at our District General Hospital revealed that approximately 18 operations are cancelled on the day of surgery each month. This equates to 27 hours of allocated operating time valued by the trust as £67 500, not being used effectively. This retrospective quality improvement report aims to reduce unused theatre time due to cancelled elective operations in general surgery theatres—thereby improving theatre efficiency and patient care. To ascertain the baseline number of cancelled operations, an initial review of theatre cases was undertaken. Further review was then completed after implementation of two improvements—a short notice surgical waiting list and fast track pre-assessment clinics. The results showed that implementation of the reserve surgical waiting list reduced unused operating time by an average of 2.25 hours per month. By further adding in the fast track preassessment clinic, these figures increased to an average of 11.5 hours over the next 3 months. This precipitated a reutilisation of otherwise wasted theatre time. Economic impact of this time amounts around £28 750 a month, after implementation of both improvements. Simple protocol changes can lead to large improvements in the efficient running of theatres. The resultant change has improved patient satisfaction, led to greater training opportunities and improved theatre efficiency. Extrapolation of our results show better usage of previously underused theatre time, to the equivalent worth of £345 000. Further implementation of these improvements in other surgical specialities and hospitals would be beneficial.

Abstract:
Objective: To find out reasons for cancellation of operation on the day of surgeryin the Surgical Department of Civil Hospital Karachi. Design: Observational study. Setting &Period: All operation theatre bookings of the Civil Hospital Surgical Department from July 2010 toOctober 2010 have been studied by using the ‘daily operating theatre lists’. Frequency ofcancellation, type of surgeries cancelled and their reasons studied. Results: Out of total 455cases, 97 (21%) surgical operations were cancelled on the day of surgery, highlighting patients’non-compliance as a major contributing reason, followed by the lack of operating room time andother causes. Among the less contributing factors were patient expiry on table, failure toadminister anesthesia and delay in operation due to exams (engagement of patients inundergraduate exam in the college). Conclusions: Patients non-compliance is a majorchallenging factor that causes a large number of cancellations of operations in the Civil HospitalKarachi.

Abstract:
Easy listening music in the operating theatre could reduce anxiety for millions of patients undergoing operations using local anaesthetic each year, according to research. This is just one of the surgical news stories that captured the media's imagination last month. Surgeons from the plastic and reconstructive department at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford measured the respiratory rates of emergency patients and asked them to rate their feelings of worry. Half the patients had their operation in a theatre with music playing and half without – the group who were exposed to music reported lower levels of anxiety and had a lower breathing rate.

Abstract:
Background: A facility within a hospital where surgical operations are carried out in a sterile environment is an operating theatre also known as an operating suite, operation theatre or operation suite. In past, the operation theatre was a place where there was an educational setting have had raised tables or chairs at the centre for performing operations surrounded by several rows of seats for students and other spectators to observe the case in progress. The objective of this research is that to better the efficacy of sterilization of operation theatre to reduce the surgical site infection and contamination at highest level.Methodology: Data was collected from surgical department of Gulab Devi Chest Hospital. Carbolization was employed to disinfect operating room and fumigation to sterilize. After neutralization with ammonia, culture swabs were collected from OT table, OT light, OT floor, OT wall, anaesthesia machine and OT trolley. Efficacy of fumigation was concluded using statistical tools.Results: There were no positive results prior and even after the fumigation.Conclusion: There was no organism growth in OT. There was no evidence of Escherichia coli,Proteus Mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus spp., E. faecalis, Coagulase negative staph and Salmonella choleraesius.

Abstract:
AbstractMedical supply during military operations has the ability to affect the efficacy of the operation being undertaken, either negatively or positively. An appropriately-managed maritime platform with a robust medical supply chain during transit and on arrival in theatre is the main aim. A secure supply chain will reduce any implications that logistics may have with regard to capability, and negate the effects of deficiencies of short shelf life items occurring over time and during use in high tempo operations.

Abstract:
Operation RUMAN was the UK response in the Autumn of 2017 to the Category 5 Hurricane IRMA, which affected the British Overseas Territories in the Caribbean. The Joint Operations Area (JOA) spanned an archipelago of Islands over 1000 nm across, stretching logistical and medical doctrinal clinical timelines in a rapidly changing and generally high risk medical environment. Despite significant challenges and a relatively suboptimal start line position, the Operation was a success from a medical perspective, with lower than expected dNBI rates. This paper, written from the medical Operational in-Theatre HQ perspective, charts the phases of Operation RUMAN during Planning, Execution and Recovery. It examines the context and lessons that arose from the Operation RUMAN that could inform future fast-moving Humanitarian Aid and Disaster Relief Operations.

Abstract:
Purpose: The operation theatre is the major cost and revenue centre in a hospital. The operation theatre’s optimum utilization will not only increase the revenue for the hospital but will also have a significant positive impact on customer satisfaction, for both internal and external customers. The present study aims in improving the existing process in an operation theatre suite of a tertiary care private hospital in Siliguri (West Bengal), which suffers from a process related problem, delay in scheduling operations (Sigma level 2.17), as found out in the Pilot Study. The study is carried out to improve the sigma level. Aligning with it, the operation theatre utilization is calculated with the objective of its bench marking, as per industry standards. Design/Methodology/Approach: The study is conducted within the framework of Defining, Measuring, Analysing, Improving, and Controlling (DMAIC) method of Six Sigma. To begin with, the Pilot Study is carried out to identify and define the problem. At the measuring and analysing stage, Pareto analysis technique is employed, aided by the Cause and Effect diagram. After the identification, causes are categorised as controllable and uncontrollable. This is followed by a brainstorming session, which is conducted in order to work out solutions relating to controllable causes. The Time Motion study data of 192 surgery cases is collected for the pre-implementation phase, while that of 236 surgery cases is collected for the post-implementation phase. An independent t test is carried out to find out the difference in the outcomes, both in the pre-implementation and the post-implementation phases, thereby reflecting the effectiveness of the solutions implemented. Findings: The baseline sigma level of 2.17 is improved to reach the 3.0 sigma level, concerning delay of scheduled operations. This is achieved by reducing the time lag that is experienced when shifting the patient from the Ward to the Operation Theatre, as also that relating to the cleaning and setting up of the Operation Theatre, between two surgeries. Practical implications: Reducing the set up and the cleaning time between two procedures helps in reducing the delay in scheduled operations, which can be achieved by the practice of shifting the patient one hour prior to the scheduled surgery. Similarly, when more surgeries need to be performed, their turnaround time can be reduced by deploying an adequate number of housekeeping staff. Thus, more number of surgeries can be done in a day and operation theatre utilization can be optimised.

Abstract:
AimTo provide a quantitative assessment of cataract theatre lists focusing on productivity and staffing levels/tasks using time and motion studies.MethodsNational Health Service (NHS) cataract theatre lists were prospectively observed in five different institutions (four NHS hospitals and one private hospital). Individual tasks and their timings of every member of staff were recorded. Multiple linear regression analyses were performed to investigate possible associations between individual timings and tasks.Results140 operations were studied over 18 theatre sessions. The median number of scheduled cataract operations was 7 (range: 5–14). The average duration of an operation was 10.3 min±(SD 4.11 min). The average time to complete one case including patient turnaround was 19.97 min (SD 8.77 min). The proportion of the surgeons’ time occupied on total duties or operating ranged from 65.2% to 76.1% and from 42.4% to 56.7%, respectively. The correlations of the surgical time to patient time in theatre was R2=0.95. A multiple linear regression model found a significant association (F(3,111)=32.86, P<0.001) with R2=0.47 between the duration of one operation and the number of allied healthcare professionals (AHPs), the number of AHP key tasks and the time taken to perform these key tasks by the AHPs.ConclusionsSignificant variability in the number of cases performed and the efficiency of patient flow were found between different institutions. Time and motion studies identified requirements for high-volume models and factors relating to performance. Supporting the surgeon with sufficient AHPs and tasks performed by AHPs could improve surgical efficiency up to approximately double productivity over conventional theatre models.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: World Health Organization, WHO har arbetat fram en checklista för säker kirurgi, som skall stötta arbetslaget i arbetet kring patienten. Checklistans syfte är att förbättra kommunikationen i arbetslaget och minska komplikationer och dödsfall i samband med kirurgi. Studiens syfte var att undersöka operations- och anestesisjuksköterskors upplevelser av att använda checklista för säkerhet vid operationer i sitt dagliga arbete. Metod: Studien var en kvalitativ intervjustudie som genomförts i fokusgrupper med operationssjuksköterskor i ena gruppen och anestesisjuksköterskor i andra. Data från två intervjuer analyserades med hjälp av en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Studien visade att brister fanns vid implementeringen och att personalen arbetade enligt gamla rutiner. Ett varierat intresse fanns till checklistan, vilket resulterade i en varierad följsamhet i användandet. Resultatet visade på att kommunikationen förbättras och att checklistan synliggjorde alla medarbetarna och ökade möjligheten till att alla kunde känna sig delaktig i vården kring patienten. Vid användning av checklistan reds frågetecken ut och checklistan skapade ett öppet klimat där personalen kunde ta upp eventuella frågetecken som fanns. Resultatet i studien visar dock på att checklistan inte löser alla kommunikationsproblem, då det framkommer att dåliga attityder och bristande respekt till varandra fanns och försvårade användandet. Konklusion: Operation -och anestesisjuksköterskorna ansåg att checklistan var ett bra verktyg när det gäller patientsäkerhet, kommunikation och teamarbete men att det fanns brister i följsamheten. De ansåg att användandet av checklistan var personbundet och att det trots checklistans tydliga utformning ändå fanns frågetecken hos personalen, speciellt vem som ansvarade att den blev gjord.

Abstract:
Introduktion: I sammanhang som kräver komplexa lösningar skapas team för att tillgodose dessa komplexa behov. På en operationsavdelning består detta team av operation- och anestesisjuksköterskor och undersköterskor. Alla professioner behöver samspela för att kunna ge en god vård till patienten. Som ett hjälpmedel för teamen har ”avspark på sal” tagits i bruk, där teamet samlas på morgonen. Tidigare forskning visar på ett behov av en rutin som uppmuntrar till kommunikation i gruppen. Syfte: Syftet var att belysa hur arbetsmodellen ”avspark på sal” upplevs av operationanestesisjuksköterskor och undersköterskor inom operationsteam. Metod: En kvalitativ intervjustudie med en induktiv ansats. Studiens baseras på 15 ostrukturerade intervjuer med operation- anestesisjuksköterskor och undersköterskor. Materialet analyserades med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: ”Avspark på sal” upplevs bidra till en ökad samhörighet i teamet. Det skapas förutsättningar för ökad respekt och förståelse för varandra. Att ha information och kontroll inom teamet oavsett om det rör sig om förståelsen över professionsgränserna och veta vad som kommer hända ökar tryggheten inom teamet. Trots detta finns det svårigheter som påverkar ”avspark på sal” eller gör att det inte genomförs. Klinisk slutsats: Studiens resultat kan användas som utvärdering för vidare förbättringsarbete. Inblick kan öka förståelsen mellan medarbetarna. I liknande kontext eller andra sammanhang där teamarbete är en central del kan studiens resultat ligga till grund för införandet av likande rutiner.
Introduction: In contexts that require complex solutions teams are created to meet these complex needs. In an operation theatre this team is composed of operation- and anesthesia nurses and assistant nurses. All professions need to interact in order to provide quality care to the patient. As an aid to the teams a working model called “avspark på sal” put into use, where the team gathered in the morning. Previous research indicates a need for a routine that encourages communication in the group. Purpose/Aim: The aim was to illustrate how the working model “avspark på sal” is experienced by operation- and anesthesia nurses and assistant nurses in the surgical team. Method: A qualitative interview study with an inductive approach. The study is based on 15 unstructured interviews with operation- and anesthesia nurses and auxiliary nurses. The material was analyzed with a qualitative content analysis. Results: “Avspark på sal” is experienced to contribute to an increased affinity of the team. It creates the conditions for greater respect and understanding for each other. To have information and control within the team, whether it concerns the understanding of professional boundaries, to know what will happen to increase security within the team. Despite this, there are difficulties affecting “avspark på sal”. Clinical conclusions: The study results can be used as evaluation for further improvement. Insight can increase understanding between employees. In a similar context or other contexts where teamwork is central the study's results could provide the basis for the introduction of similar routine.

The following report, which I hope will serve as a reference for future alumni and arts administrators who are interested in theatre operation and performing arts management, is based on my internship experience at the Irvine Barclay Theatre, which took place from July 1st to September 30th, 2009. The Irvine Barclay Theatre is a performing arts center which is uniquely designed to bring international and culturally-diverse programs which range from music to dance to drama to the Orange County community. It has the capacity to hold 756 people. It is managed by an independent non-profit operating company with its own professional staff and governed by a volunteer-based board of directors. This report includes detailed information in regards to the Barclay's history and current operations. It also includes sections on my contributions, a S.W.O.T. analysis, best practices, and recommendations I've formulated from knowledge I have acquired through the Arts Administration program and my internship as a multi-purpose assistant at the Barclay. It is important to note that throughout the time my internship and the writing of this report took place, the United States was experiencing the effects of a severe economic recession.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.
The U.S. military has never been able to prevent theater missiles (TMs) from being launched at U.S. and Allied or Coalition forces and citizens. Post-war analysis of interdiction efforts during World War II and the Persian Gulf War could not identify a single instance where either a German V weapon or an Iraqi SCUD missile was destroyed before launch. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, the best estimate that the Air Force could provide the National Command Authority was that ninety percent of the Soviet missiles in Cuba would be destroyed by an airstrike. To correct this deficiency, the military developed joint theater missile defense (JTMD) doctrine. This doctrine attempts to integrate synergistically all U.S. military assets and capabilities. However, this doctrine does not fully integrate Special Operations Forces (SOF) into attack operations against TMs. Additionally, the joint tactics, techniques, and procedures (JTTPs) needed to implement this doctrine have not been developed. The integration of SOF's capability to conduct pre-strike and post-strike reconnaissance, critical material recovery operations and target acquisition tasks can immediately improve JTMD capabilities.

Abstract:
This thesis outlines the findings of a large body of research work undertaken during 3 years of full-time study. The findings have already provided the author with helpful anchors for structuring formative feedback to surgical trainees within a simulation program, as well as helpful insights into her own learning. This thesis explores the operating theatre as a teaching and learning environment for postgraduate surgical trainees. The work crosses paradigms and uses contrasting methodologies to provide rich insights into surgical pedagogic practice. The first chapter is an introduction to the subject material, outlining the thesis aims and research questions, making clear why the research is important. The perspectives of the researcher are explained, in the first person, to make explicit her background and epistemological stance. The next chapter presents a narrative review of the literature, providing a background to the subject and a theoretical framework. Chapters three to six constitute empirical work. The third and fourth chapters use a grounded theory method to explore surgeons’ perceptions of the content and process of learning in the operating theatre. Chapter five uses case study methodology to illustrate teaching and learning in the operating theatre with concrete examples of pedagogic practice. The sixth chapter is a quasi-experimental study of learning which makes comparison between different pedagogic styles. The final chapter of the thesis draws together the findings from the empirical investigations. The personal development of the researcher is discussed in the first person and the body of research work is critically examined in view of its contribution to the field and its implications for future educational innovation.

Abstract:
In recent years, autonomy has been subject to significant interest and investment within the maritime industry. Several high-profile trials such as Unmanned Warrior 2016 and Autonomous Warrior 2018, have drawn attention to the rapidly emerging and advancing technology. Following the successful operation of 7 autonomous vessels during Unmanned Warrior 2016, L3 Technologies completed a series of demonstrations at Autonomous Warrior 2018. The continually evolving technology has enabled increasing complex autonomous operations to be trialled. This accessibility and enhanced capabilities have resulted in the increased adoption of autonomous vessel technology. Navies around the world have shown much interest in the enhanced military capability that autonomous vessels bring to the operational theatre. It is clear that the technology is available, and the demand exists, but integration into a modern operation warship poses an indisputable challenge? The operating cycle of an USV when hosted on-board a warship can be summarised as ‘Maintain, Deploy, Execute and Recover’. Understanding how the USV integrates into the mothership at each of these stages will increase the effectiveness and efficiency of operating the USV. To fully understand this all aspects of integration should be considered, people, processes and technical interfaces. Two key on-board systems that an autonomous vessel will need to interact with are the combat system and the IPMS. As autonomous technologies become more established and proven, the confidence gained will have implications for its possible implementation on larger vessels potentially leading to fully autonomous cargo ships and cruise ships.

Abstract:
Services are frequently developed unsystematically; and new ideas are not sufficiently conceptualized and tested. This results in expensive improvement measures at a later stage during the operations phase. This challenge is addressed through the recent launching of the “ServLab” facility at the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Engineering. It incorporates a stage for acting out service scenarios, furnishings to represent the physical environment, and a large virtual reality (VR) backdrop to simulate the “servicescape”. Situations are played out by professional actors or by employees and invited customers. In particular, the ServLab makes it possible to test services comprehensively. It is just this problem which has not been solved satisfactorily for a long time — neither in science nor in practice. It is still common for concepts to be developed “round the green table”, followed by an attempt to implement them directly. Potential mistakes are discovered very late or not at all, resulting in expensive rectification activities. The ServLab makes it possible to visualise new service concepts (using virtual reality), create an environment that is as close as possible to reality (e.g. by playing back sounds or introducing odours) and to rehearse the interaction between customers and employees with the support of actors (service theatre).

Abstract:
Protecting a soldier’s head from injury is critical to function and survivability. Traditionally, combat helmets have been utilized to provide protection against shrapnel and ballistic threats, which have reduced head injuries and fatalities. However, home-made bombs or improvised explosive devices (IEDs) have been increasingly used in theatre of operations since the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts. Traumatic brain injury (TBI), particularly blast-induced TBI, which is typically not accompanied by external body injuries, is becoming increasingly prevalent among injured soldiers. The response of personal protective equipment, especially combat helmets, to blast events is relatively unknown. There is an urgent need to develop head protection systems with blast protection/ mitigation capabilities in addition to ballistic protection. Modern military operations, ammunitions, and technology driven war tactics require a lightweight headgear that integrates protection mechanisms (against ballistics, blasts, heat, and noise), sensors, night vision devices, and laser range finders into a single system. The current paper provides a comparative study on the design, materials, ballistic and blast performance of the combat helmets used by the U.S. Army based on a comprehensive and critical review of existing studies. Mechanisms of ballistic energy absorption, effects of helmet curvatures on ballistic performance, and performance measures of helmets are discussed. Properties of current helmet materials (including Kevlar® K29 and K129 fibers, and thermoset resins) and future candidate materials for helmets (such as nano-composites, thermoplastic polymers, and carbon fibers) are elaborated. Also, experimental and computational studies on blast-induced TBI are examined, and constitutive models developed for brain tissues are reviewed. Finally, the effectiveness of current combat helmets against TBI is analyzed along with possible avenues for future research.
