Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Construction and renovation of an operating room suite is an expensive and challenging project. Perioperative managers must use their knowledge and expertise to ensure that the vision of the facility is realized. Managers may be unfamiliar with facility planning and design and lack understanding of how to communicate effectively with the architectural team. Important items to consider and how to avoid costly errors are discussed.
