Hi all,
We are in the process of undergoing a Redevelopment of our organisation and as part of this we will be having some ‘hybrid’ theatres. These theatres will be used for the range of normal hybrid procedures including open and endovascular procedures.
Any design advice from anyone? Any experiences that you would be willing to share in terms of design pitfalls.
Kind regards

Hello Rachel
Your luck is in today as I have just moved from theatres to Infection prevention and am currently filling in for Margie Evans.
We are about to open a hybrid theatre at Randwick Campus Operating Suite/ Prince of Wales for endovascular room. I have some links from theatres that would help you out.
The design is yet to be tried and tested as we are still waiting for some last minute issues, but I’m sure they would be happy to help out.
I attending a wonderful conference just the other week in Hobart, beautiful place.

Our facility are in the process of planning for a hybrid theatre, I would like to know if there are any standards written for them? Also has anyone been involved in the planning and completion of a hybrid theatre? If so do you have open ceiling control rooms?
Our team are requesting that a 2.1 meter wall (with glass)door free is built for the control room instead of floor to ceiling wall. There reason being it’s easier to communicate with the surgeon!!
Thus far I have said NO to the 2.1 meter wall hence my question here today. I’d be happy for any advice.
Many thanks

Hi Cath
This may help you understand the term ‘hybrid theatre”. Its from Europe, but reflects what is starting to happen in Australia.

Subject: FW: Hybrid theatresHi Jayne
Could you please define what you mean by the term “hybrid” theatre? I would imagine that there are v. specific guidleines and probably Australian Standards around what areas can be termed operating theatres and also what procedures can be performed in what types of spaces (other than in the event of life-saving emergency conditions).
There is an Australian Facility Building Code or the like. Others will be able to point you to that. There may also be an ACORN Stadnard on the issue. I suggest you contact Jed Duff, ACORN President.
There are also likely to be N. American guidelines on this which whilst not directly translatable they may give you insight.
Good luck with it, an interesting idea…I wonder what has promoted the need for a “hybrid”. FYI – standardisation is much safer than hybridisation, any day.

Thanks Cathy,
I have looked at the Australian facility building guideline but hasn’t really told me much in terms of specialist hybrids!! However I will contact Jed Duff and seek his advice.
The architect said they would put me in touch with other hospital in Australia- There’s one in the Gold Coast apparently that have a Hybrid OT- Fancy term for a lot of equipment costs a lot of $- but does allow for more diagnostic and minimal invasive procedure to be carried out, including Cardiothoracic surgery. So someone else out there might be familiar.
Have a great weekend. Thanks again

Hi Jayne,
I am currently on the Operational Readiness Commissioning Team for the New Perth Children’s Hospital in Perth. We have 2 Hybrid OT rooms, 1 hybrid light OT and a hybrid Bi-plane OT. Our control rooms are fully enclosed with a glass viewing window. There is speaker /intercom system in place for communication.Feel free to contact me if you want further discussion.
Regards

Thanks Cathy,
I have looked at the Australian facility building guideline but hasn’t really told me much in terms of specialist hybrids!! However I will contact Jed Duff and seek his advice.
The architect said they would put me in touch with other hospital in Australia- There’s one in the Gold Coast apparently that have a Hybrid OT- Fancy term for a lot of equipment costs a lot of $- but does allow for more diagnostic and minimal invasive procedure to be carried out, including Cardiothoracic surgery. So someone else out there might be familiar.
Have a great weekend. Thanks again
Jayne

Hi Jayne
Could you please define what you mean by the term “hybrid” theatre? I would imagine that there are v. specific guidleines and probably Australian Standards around what areas can be termed operating theatres and also what procedures can be performed in what types of spaces (other than in the event of life-saving emergency conditions).
There is an Australian Facility Building Code or the like. Others will be able to point you to that. There may also be an ACORN Stadnard on the issue. I suggest you contact Jed Duff, ACORN President.
There are also likely to be N. American guidelines on this which whilst not directly translatable they may give you insight.
Good luck with it, an interesting idea…I wonder what has promoted the need for a “hybrid”. FYI – standardisation is much safer than hybridisation, any day.
Cheers

Morning Brains trust 🙂
Our facility are in the process of planning for a hybrid theatre, I would like to know if there are any standards written for them? Also has anyone been involved in the planning and completion of a hybrid theatre? If so do you have open ceiling control rooms?
Our team are requesting that a 2.1 meter wall (with glass)door free is built for the control room instead of floor to ceiling wall. There reason being it’s easier to communicate with the surgeon!!
Thus far I have said NO to the 2.1 meter wall hence my question here today. I’d be happy for any advice.
Many thanks
Jayne
