Surgical Department
The Surgical Department is comprised of all functional areas required for
patient surgical services. It includes the Surgical Procedure Suite, Pre-
Procedure Assessment, Pre-Operative Holding, Post Anesthesia Care Unit
(PACU), and Phase II Recovery.
Recently there has been a shift towards one integrated interventional plat-
form consolidating surgical and invasive cardiovascular services directly ad-
jacent to each other. By utilizing the same aseptic environment this concept
maximizes efficiency by sharing resources, and promotes quality outcomes
and patient safety. The Surgical Services Design Guide includes templates
for new Cardiac Catheterization Laboratories, Procedure Rooms for Elec-
trophysiology, and Transesophageal Echocardiograph (TEE) Rooms, which
will be collocated with Surgical Services and share the same semi-restricted
area and adjacent support spaces.
This Design Guide is intended for facilities of the following acuity levels: Am-
bulatory, Standard, Intermediate, and Complex Centers.
NARRATIVE 2-2
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Patient: The Patient checks in and changes into a gown in the pre-procedure
area. They are then visited by members of the surgical team, who will start
an intravenous (IV) line, review the procedure and answer any questions the
patient may have. They are then brought into the operating room on a gur-
ney and transferred to the operating table. While the patient is awake dur-
ing this process, the anesthesiologist may have given the patient a drug to
help them relax. Once situated on the operating table, the anesthesiologist
will give the patient drugs through their IV and a breathing mask to induce
anesthesia. When the patient is asleep the surgical procedure begins. Once
the surgery is complete the patient is moved to the post-anesthesia care
unit (PACU) until the effects of the anesthesia wear off. Outpatients will go
to the Phase 2 recovery area, where a designated family member can come
and visit with the patient while they become more alert and is discharged
to go home. Inpatients will be transferred to a patient ward until they are
discharged.
Linens: Linens are brought into the Operating Rooms by way of the semi-
restricted corridor. Soiled linen is bagged and removed from the Operating
Room via the semi-restricted corridor.
NARRATIVE 2-3
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
• The “sterile field” itself as described above. Only fully scrubbed staff
(known as the “scrub team”) is permitted in this area in the center of
each Operating Room.
• Within the Operating Room, both the scrub team as well as the ad-
ditional staff that are not in the sterile field must abide by strict rules
established by the Medical Center.
• Semi-restricted areas, including spaces such as the pre-operative and
patient holding areas, PACU, instrument workroom, non-sterile supply
storage, staff lockers/lounges/toilets/showers, control desk, and
surgery administration offices.
The circulator places the packs on the instrument table from the side of the
instrument table away from the sterile field. The scrub nurse removes the
sterile instruments and places them on the surgical instrument table prior to
the procedure. With the exception of some specialty surgical procedures,
the surgical instrument table is positioned toward the foot of the operating
table, but always within the sterile field. A single instrument table may be up
to 8.0 feet (2440 mm) in length, or there could be more than one instrument
table. Once the procedure starts, the scrub nurse constantly draws from this
source to supply the surgeons during the operation. The circulator also as-
sists the surgeon with devices used in the sterile field such as lasers.
No one walks between the operating room table and the surgical instrument
table, except those in sterile garb who have thoroughly scrubbed. When por-
table imaging equipment is used, space for these items must be considered.
Surgical microscopes or video monitors on carts and other large pieces of
equipment (including robotics) may also be needed in an Operating Room,
and space for them must be considered.
Surgeon: The Medical Doctor who is board certified as a Surgeon and acts
as surgical team leader to direct and supervise all aspects of a surgery. The
responsible surgeon’s eligibility to perform a surgical procedure is based
upon that surgeon’s education, training, experience, and demonstrated

procedure, to administer the anesthetic agent before and during surgery, and
to monitor the patient’s vital signs. Anesthesia staff remain with the patient
during the entire surgical procedure. Following the surgery, the patient
remains under the care of the anesthesia staff and the assigned recovery
room nurse until the patient has met the discharge criteria.
Surgical Scrub: The surgical scrub, together with the first assistant to the
surgeon, is the main support person for the operating surgeon. He/she has
an understanding of the procedure being performed and anticipates the
needs of the surgeon. The scrub personnel are responsible for the sterile
supplies and instruments and for handing them to the surgeon. He/she has
the necessary knowledge and ability to ensure quality patient care during the
operative procedure and is constantly on vigil for maintenance of the sterile
field. More complicated surgical procedures may require the presence of
two scrub personnel, one assisting the surgeon at the operating room table
and one responsible for the instruments at the instrument table.
Circulating Nurse: The circulating nurse, known as the circulator, does not
function within the sterile field, but performs many of the required tasks
outside the sterile field. This person also acts as the “non-sterile” hands
of the surgeons and scrub person, bringing required supplies, instruments
and equipment into the Operating Room, maintaining surgical records in the
Operating Room, etc. Although the surgeon performing the operation has
the ultimate responsibility for the care of the patient in the Operating Room, it
is the circulator who is responsible for maintenance of sterile conditions and
is in charge of personnel. This person is the primary advocate ensuring that
correct surgery is performed by confirming proper patient identification and
surgical site(s), confirming that a history and physical is on the patient chart,
and confirming that a signed surgical consent is present. The circulator also
enters safety measures into the computer, records time out, and assures
that the proper prosthetics, if required, are available.
NARRATIVE 2-6
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Charge Nurse: The charge nurse supervises all activities that occur within
the individual Operating Rooms. The charge nurse is also available to
temporarily replace the scrub nurse during long operations. The office of the
charge nurse may be located within the clean core.
NARRATIVE 2-7

NARRATIVE 2-8
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Scrub Sink Area: The Scrub alcove is located in the semi-restricted area
at or between entrances to a single surgical operating room or between
the entrances at two adjacent surgical operating rooms. It is acceptable for
one Scrub Sink Area to be shared between two Operating Rooms; however,
when Operating Rooms are laid out in a same-handed arrangement, it is
advisable to provide a separate scrub sink alcove for each OR.
The scrub alcove is stocked with a variety of types and sizes of sterile gloves,
sterile gown packs, antimicrobial cleansing solutions and sterile nail brushes/
sponges with a nail pick. These brushes are pre-packed, for single use only
and some may already be impregnated with an antimicrobial solution. Scrub
brushes may be placed in dispensers next to sinks.
Sinks are provided with hot and cold water and tap controls must be adjusted
for water temperature flow before starting to scrub. Running water is preferred
because it easily rinses away suds containing bacteria. Containers for
antimicrobial solutions are placed between each set of taps and care should
be taken not to contaminate hands when dispensing solution. The pump
dispenser must be changed each time an empty bottle is replaced with a
new one. The standard solutions such as Povidone Iodine or Chlorhexidine
(triclosan), or acceptable equivalent may be available for those practitioners
who are sensitive to the standard solutions.
Gurney Storage: Surgical patients are brought into the Operating Room on a
gurney or on a combination gurney/recovery room bed. In some cases such
as eye surgery, a recovery bed is used instead of a standard operating table
for the procedure. Normally, the patient is transferred to the operating table
in the room and the gurney is removed from the OR. An alcove is provided
directly outside the Operating Room in the semi-restricted corridor where the
vehicle is parked during the procedure. After surgery the patient is placed
NARRATIVE 2-9
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
back on the gurney and moved to the Recovery Patient Area. The patient
may be transferred to a hospital bed at this point. There are occasions when
a patient is transferred directly from the Operating Room onto a hospital bed
and taken directly to the Surgical Intensive Care Unit. The gurney alcove
outside each OR should be large enough to accommodate a standard
hospital bed in its maximum configuration with IV poles, etc. attached. For
this reason the alcove should measure 4 ft. (1200 mm) wide by 10 ft. (3040
mm) long.
NARRATIVE 2-10
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Sterile Supplies: Sterile supplies are retrieved from the clean core by the
circulator. A selection of sterile supplies may also be stored within the
Operating Room.
Case Carts: Case carts are used to bring sterile materials and instruments
from SPS to the Operating Room. A typical case cart contains specific items
required for each specific case, including all required surgical instruments
and other supplies. More complex procedures may require several case
carts. Case carts are typically staged in the Clean Core outside of the
Operating Room prior to a procedure to optimize turnover time. Some case
carts may remain in the Operating Room during the procedure and be used
as back tables. After the surgical procedure is completed, these case carts
are returned via the semi-restricted corridor to the “soiled” side of SPS on
another dedicated cart lift or dedicated soiled elevator. In the event that
SPS is not located below the Surgical Suite, an alternative traffic pattern for
the case carts must be established that isolates clean and soiled case cart
traffic. Dedicated elevators are sized to accommodate a set number of case
carts in the elevator cab.
The Phase II Recovery Patient Area is utilized for recovery of the patient after
the PACU and/or for ambulatory surgery patients who come directly from the
surgery. The Prep Area should be co-located with the Phase II Recovery
Room to provide maximum flexibility for the patient room assignment. Since
most surgical procedures start in the morning, the Prep Area can occupy
under-utilized Phase II Recovery Space in the morning however, the same
area can be utilized for Phase II recovery in the afternoon.

Room. Typical tasks in this area include blocks and the placement of lines.
From here the patient is transferred to the Operating Room.
In cardiothoracic surgery, the patient’s blood may have to bypass the heart
to permit the surgeons to perform the required procedure. The blood supply
bypasses the heart, circulates through a mechanical pump (called the heart/
lung machine) and then returns oxygenated blood to the patient. The heart
lung machine is stored in the Pump Room adjacent to and directly accessible
from the Cardiovascular Operating Room. Particular attention should be
given to the width of the doorway so the Heart/Lung machine will fit through
it.
Accessory supplies required for bypass procedures are also stored in the
Pump Room. The room is sufficiently large to allow breakdown, essential
cleanup and storage of parts, and to accommodate at least two heart/lung
machines, one of which provides backup function in case of mechanical
failure of the other machine. Clean bypass machines are transported to
the Cardiovascular Operating Room via the Clean Core. Soiled bypass
machines are moved from the Cardiovascular Operating Room to the Pump
Room where they are cleaned.
NARRATIVE 2-12
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Minimum clearances of the room as well as the size of the no-fly zone
at the ceiling plane will vary by model/vendor of the imaging equipment.
VHA experience demonstrates that 28 ft. (8534 mm) is the minimum clear
dimension that should be observed in the room. The system component
room will be accessible from the semi-restricted corridor or the control room.
The imaging equipment may also have a maximum distance requirement
from the system to the control module as well as required service clearances.

The orientation of the operating room table to the Control Room window may
be determined by the head interventionalist, who may prefer a side view or a
toe view of the patient. A ceiling-mounted injector is the preferred choice, but
a mobile unit can also be employed if ceiling space is not available.
The Control Room is directly accessible from the Hybrid OR as well as from
the semi-restricted corridor. The counter at the view window is typically 2
ft. 6 in. (762 mm) deep to house the control modules associated with the
imaging equipment as well as charting workstations. The equipment for the
Hybrid OR may have additional requirements for the placement of the control
modules, which shall be taken into consideration in the planning of the room.
NARRATIVE 2-14
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Requirements will include spaces for gowning and scrubbing, which enable
cardiologists and clinical staff to travel from areas considered “soiled” to the
aseptic semi-restricted corridor from which the Cath Lab is accessed. [Note:
The Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory is considered a sterile environment.]
The Control Room should be sized adequately to allow staff movement and
imaging equipment. However, an overly large control room invites visitors
(vendors, other staff, other physicians) who can be a distraction during a
case. Visibility of the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory as well as the
patient is through leaded glazed vision panels, and shall accommodate
control counters for equipment video and data monitors, hemodynamic
monitoring and computers utilized by physicians and clinical technicians to
support the procedure type and imaging modality. The Control Room shall
have direct access to the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory procedure
room and access directly to the semi-restricted corridor.
The equipment selected will affect the layout of tracks and their supporting
structure above the ceiling. Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory equipment
is upgraded every few years so flexibility is important. Although the Guide
Plate indicates a ceiling supported imaging modality, specific facilities’
cardiovascular services may seek different assemblages at the time of
planning and design. Consider room clearances, both horizontally and
NARRATIVE 2-15

NARRATIVE 2-16
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Common tasks performed in this area are monitoring vital signs, monitoring
the surgical site for excessive bleeding and swelling, managing post-
operative pain and other symptoms.
PACUs are typically arranged with patient cubicles around a Central Nursing
Station. PACU bays can be three-walled with a cubicle curtain, but it is
recommended that they be four-walled rooms with a minimum dimension of
12 ft. (2720 mm) wide and 13 ft. (3660 mm) deep. For airborne isolation an
ante-room can be added to the four-walled rooms to provide a space for the
provider to gown prior to entering the patient room.
Work Flow
Not every patient will follow the same workflow protocol; therefore, several
different scenarios have been diagrammed to show possible routes that a
patient may take through the surgical department. It is important to note that
the major differences stem from the level of acuity of the procedure being
performed: in the case of ambulatory surgery the patient will arrive on the
day of surgery and be discharged on that same day without interaction with
any spaces outside of the surgery department. During an in-house or same
day admit surgery, intake and discharge of the patient will occur through
other hospital departments. In complex surgical cases, the patient will likely
not spend any time in pre and post procedural areas but be transferred
directly to the surgical intensive care unit. This serves to minimize patient
transfers and ultimately reduce patient risk.
Functional Adjacencies
The Surgical Suite is situated to prevent non-related traffic through the
department. It is divided into three distinct areas, which are defined by the
physical activities occurring within the area and staged in a progressive
NARRATIVE 2-17
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
The unrestricted area includes the central control point that is established to
monitor the movement of patients, staff, and equipment. The semi-restricted
area (“red line”) includes the peripheral support areas of the surgery suite,
such as storage areas for clean and sterile supplies, instrument processing
areas, scrub sink alcoves, and the corridors leading to the restricted area.
Access to this area is restricted and appropriate surgical attire as well as
coverings for head/ facial hair is required. The restricted area includes the
operating rooms as well as the clean core. Access to this area also requires
appropriate surgical attire and in some instances - masks. All other areas in
the surgery suite are non-restricted with no specific requirements for attire
and covers.
Clean Core
The surgical suite is set up to carefully orchestrate the flow of sterile and
soiled goods. A one-way flow of soiled goods out of the operating room
and sterile goods into the operating room on a separate, dedicated route is
preferred. This is best accomplished by grouping operating rooms around
the Clean Core.
Sterile supplies are transported to the clean core via dedicated elevators
from the clean side of SPS. An optional dedicated stairway may be included
if SPS is vertically separated from the clean core by no more than two floors.
Depending on the available space and the type of facility different clean core
arrangements can be employed. Generally, it is recommended to keep the
quantity of operating rooms around a clean core to 8 or less in number to
avoid excessive travel distances. In renovation situations where space is
NARRATIVE 2-18
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
not available to utilize a Clean Core Outer Racetrack concept, one corridor
outside the Operating Room may be considered a clean space where sterile
supplies are stored. Appropriate staff and materials flow must be followed to
maintain the separation of clean and soiled traffic. However, this arrangement
should only be considered for a small complement of Operating Rooms.
Waste Management
Medical Waste: Medical waste is generated in medical exam rooms or in
patient rooms where it is bagged, collected and transported using specially
designated, closed containers to the soiled utility rooms. The waste is held
there until it is transported via the loading dock to the medical waste handling
facility.
Product types used in the building: disposable vs. recycle products should
be discussed as it is. An important design consideration in alternatives that
impacts physical space for waste disposal volumes.
Refer to the NEPA Interim Guidance for Projects for more information
regarding recycling requirements.
Soiled Linen: Reusable soiled linens are generated in patient rooms, physical
therapy gyms, and sometimes the medical exam rooms. They should be
collected in carts or hampers in the soiled utility rooms and transported to a
soiled linen holding room near the loading dock for pick-up. Medical exam
rooms may opt to use disposable paper products in which case, they would
be discarded after each use.
Utensils: Any medical care washable items incorporated in the plan of care
should be transported to the soiled utility room for holding. Items will then be
transported to a sterile processing department or service for cleaning and
reprocessing.

side of the operating room table. For this reason, these doors are typically
located toward the foot of the operating table away from the anesthesia
equipment. If lead lining in the walls of the Operating Room is required by
a qualified physicist, it is mandatory that the doors into these rooms have
automatic door openers. To provide visibility between the semi-restricted

The current version of the VA HVAC Design Manual describes an air supply
distribution system for the general operating rooms. The Manual indicates
the minimum requirements for total air changes per hour (ACH) of supply
air to be provided at the point of delivery to the room which includes the
required minimum ACH of outside air. The supply air system provided is an
air curtain system. The system is comprised of two different types of ceiling
diffusers located within the operating room. The area above the patient is
provided with a laminar diffuser array sized in accordance with the current
version of ASHRAE Standard 170 and provides a slow velocity downward
wash of clean supply air over the operating table surgical zone. Combined
with this diffuser array is a four sided linear slot diffuser system using spe-
cially designed linear slot diffusers that surrounds the operating table surgi-
cal zone. Per the current version of the VA HVAC Design Manual, the linear
diffusers discharge a vertical airstream inclined at an outward angle toward
the sides of the operating room walls. The purpose of the linear diffusers is
to create a high velocity barrier of clean air to keep room contaminant par-
ticles which may be recirculating from the perimeter of the room away from
the surgical zone. The linear slot diffuser curtain should be sized to deliver
the air flow rate per foot per manufacturer recommendations. Flow rates
below this quantity may not properly isolate the surgical air zone from con-
taminants, while air flows above this quantity may increase the possibility of
re-entraining particles that have settled on the floor. The percentage of total
room supply air to be provided by the slot diffusers and the unidirectional
perforated diffusers is referenced in the VA HVAC Design Manual.
Unlike the general operating rooms, the hybrid operating rooms utilize a sin-
gle large array of laminar flow diffusers which provides 100% of the required
room supply air. The laminar flow diffuser array is located over the operating
table and surrounding area to create a large surgical zone providing a slow
moving blanket of clean air over the patient and surrounding area. The oper-
ating rooms are the most positively pressurized spaces in the surgery suite.
Surgical Suite Air Handling Units: Air handling units serving the surgical suite
shall be provided with emergency power per requirements of the current
version of the VA HVAC Design Manual. Air handling units shall have the
capacity for utilizing 100% outside air where required by building code to
meet purge requirements.
Filtration: Filtration for the Surgical Suite HVAC systems shall be provided in
conformance with the current version of the VA HVAC Design Manual
Operating rooms and surgery support spaces shall follow the current ver-
sion of the VA HVAC Design Manual unless noted otherwise. The room data
sheets provided in the Design Standard Templates chapter of this document
NARRATIVE 2-28
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
refers the user to specific rooms types shown in the VA HVAC Design Man-
ual unless noted otherwise. The room type referenced in the HVAC Design
Manual is found in a table that will provide the needed information for room
design temperatures, relative humidity range, room air changes, and space
pressure relationships.
It is highly desirable to identify the supply air zone described above by in-
stalling a patch of flooring material that is a different color from the rest of
the room. This patch should be located in the General Operating Room by
aligning it with the slot diffusers described above and for the Hybrid Operat-
ing Rooms by aligning with the perimeter of the laminar flow diffuser array.
This will indicate the sterile field.
Outdoor Air Requirements: The HVAC Design for surgery support spaces
shall provide each space with not less than the minimum recommended
quantity of ventilation air indicated in the current version of the VA HVAC
Design Manuals.
Exhaust and Return Air Requirements: The HVAC design for spaces other
than operating rooms shall provide return air or exhaust air as required
for the spaces to control the transfer of odors and provide proper room
pressurization. At a minimum, exhaust air and pressurization should be
provided as indicated in the VA HVAC Design Manuals.
Noise Criteria: The HVAC design shall provide resulting sound levels in
occupied spaces not to exceed the levels shown in the current version of the
VA HVAC Design Manual.
NARRATIVE 2-29
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Humidity Criteria: Humidity levels for the Surgical Suite HVAC systems shall
be provided in conformance with the current version of the VA HVAC Design
Manual.
The plumbing and medical gas systems shall comply with the current version
of Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Plumbing Design Manual, VA Design
and Construction Procedures, VA Master Construction Specifications and
VA Standard Details, where applicable. Deviations from the VA Standards
may be made, provided approval is obtained from the VA-CFM Consulting
Support Services or Facility Standards Services. Where state or local codes
are more stringent than the above requirements, submit criteria to the VA for
review and approval.
NARRATIVE 2-30
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Lighting: Lighting systems are essential for the surgical staff to perform
and function safely, efficiently, and effectively. The Lighting Design Manual
(LDM) provides design A/E guidance for lighting design parameters, as well
as recommended types of luminaires, in the surgical suite. The design A/E
has the option of using either fluorescent or LED lighting technology. The
design A/E shall follow the Reflected Ceiling Plan in Section 4 – Design
Guide Plates of this Design Manual for the placement of luminaires. The
design A/E shall select appropriate number of lamps in each luminaire to
render the required illuminance level for each room and task. Normally,
number of lamps for luminaires located at the core of surgery room is 6 (3 of
which are on emergency battery back-up).
Lighting levels in the operating room are also required to fluctuate from high to
low in order to accommodate specific tasks. Therefore, the design A/E must
implement luminaires with dimming capabilities using multi-level switching,
dimming arrangements, or both. Normally, luminaires located at the core
of the surgery room are designed with multi-level switching arrangement;
luminaires located in the peripheral area of the surgery room are designed
with dimming capabilities. Point-to-point foot-candle calculation for each
room or area must be performed using commercially available computer
software to validate compliance with lighting level and energy conservation
requirements. The calculations must be documented and provided to VA for
review and concurrence.
Power:
The A/E shall provide electrical design for all electrically operated equipment.
The A/E shall confirm electrical requirements of all equipment to provide
correct design and load calculations. A/E shall show receptacles or hardwire
connections for all electrically operated equipment. The Electrical Engineer
shall coordinate with The Architect regarding the physical dimensions of the
line isolation monitor panel(s). This information is needed for the construction
of the wall to correctly accommodate the line isolation monitor.
NARRATIVE 2-31
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Normal Power: One IPS on normal power shall be designed and specified
for each surgery room. Receptacles on normal power shall be connected to
the normal power IPS.
Emergency Power: Two IPS systems on the Critical branch of the Essential
Electrical System (EES) shall be designed and specified for each surgery
room, and shall be located at opposite diagonal corners of the surgery room.
Line isolation monitoring shall be integral with the IPS. Receptacles on the
Critical branch of the EES shall be connected to the closest Critical branch
IPS. The IPS shall provide power to receptacles designated for emergency
power mounted on the wall or within the articulating columns.
A 208 Volt special outlet shall be provided for the laser surgery equipment.
This special outlet shall be connected to a separate Critical branch IPS
supplying power to all laser surgery equipment. Normally, IPS supplying
power to all laser surgery equipment is located at the closest corridor outside
the surgical room.
Intercom, telephone and computer systems are all required in the operating
rooms. In addition, a “code blue” system is required in the event of a cardiac
arrest summoning designated staff to the OR from other areas of the hospital.
It is highly desirable for the articulating utility column serving the anesthesia
machine to have a telephone mounted on it since the anesthesia staff cannot
leave the head of the table. This will allow him/her to summon assistance
from the chief anesthesiologist when required or to request a replacement
when a break is needed.

Patient Safety Display: Patient Safety Display provides the OR team with
real-time, up to date, accurate patient data from disparate hospital sources
and helps to optimize patient safety and workflow efficiency for every
procedure. The display automatically aggregates surgical case and patient
information from other data systems and displays it on a dedicated screen
in the OR, providing automatic access to key information from diverse IT
systems - Laboratory, Radiology, Medical Records, Allergies and more. The
system can also assist OR staff in safely navigating through Sign In, Time Out
and Sign Out requirements for every surgical procedure while encouraging
best practices to optimize patient outcomes that can significantly reduce the
potential risk of a “never” event.
NARRATIVE 2-34
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
The same communication can be had between ORs in the same hospital
wherever compatible CODECs are used. This feature can be installed in
one room or at the in-suite control desk and shared by all. An example of its
functionality is an OR in the United States sending pictures and audio in real
time to a surgeon in another country who has a compatible CODEC.
A streaming tier can transmit live, one-way audio and video to live broadcast
procedures to a conference room or auditorium via a network. The broadcast
can be viewed by smaller groups on desktop, mobile devices and tablets
or larger groups with certain third party streaming devices. The feature
is commonly used by teaching hospitals and can be integrated on site in
a manner similar to the CODEC and the two are typically collocated for
convenient control of external information dissemination.
Cameras used for live viewing and recording allow surgeons to capture any
angle and position of procedure with enhanced five axis control capability
including image rotation to optimize view orientation, auto focus zoom to
capture appropriate level of detail through the progression of a procedure,
panning to the left or right, tilting up and down, pivoting freely in a full circle.
The cameras have a combination of automated features and manual modes
that can be maneuvered through the integration system touch panel or in
the surgical field by using button controls on the camera. The focus and
brightness adjustment capability can capture true color rendition when
calibrated and routed to a high definition monitor recording device, multiple
video formats and signal compatibilities are built into the camera for real
time capture with no discernible image lag. High end cameras feature up to
2 million effective pixel with 1080 horizontal high definition resolution and up
to 120x optical zoom. Various mounts are available for the cameras to locate
anywhere in the room including arm mounts that can locate the camera
directly over the operating table. Mounts can be located on surgical lights or
independently. The mounts and camera utilize anti drift technology similar to
that used in operating room lights to ensure the camera does not move out
of position once located.
Digital recording systems can capture high definition surgical audio, 1080p
video and still images, and annotation during a case. Some recording
systems also feature search engines for keyword based image retrieval,
NARRATIVE 2-35
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
editing software, and built in printing capability that can render pre-scripted
images automatically during a case or select images for use afterwards. This
functionality can also be tied to third party devices with USB ports and stored
on the hospital servers via centrally mapped network drives Digital recording
systems can capture images and video directly from OR cameras as well as
be linked to other inputs in other areas of the suite including mobile devices
with proper software. Once captured, the information can be made available
to any device on the hospital network with software that enables tiered
secure access, customizable to hospital and HIPPA compliance policies, for
downloads, information sharing with consulting physicians and incorporation
into electronic medical records.

3.1. General
Not every patient will follow the same workflow protocol; therefore, several
different scenarios have been diagrammed in Figures 3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.3, 3.1.4
to show possible routes that a patient may take through the surgical department.
It is important to note that the major differences stem from the level of acuity of
the procedure being performed: in the case of ambulatory surgery the patient
will arrive on the day of surgery and be discharged on that same day without
interacting with any other spaces outside of the surgery department. During a
hospital-based surgery intake and discharge of the patient will occur through
other hospital departments. In emergent surgical cases the patient will likely
not spend any time in pre- and post-procedural areas but be transferred directly
to the critical care unit. This serves to minimize patient transfers and ultimately

reduce patient risk.

The semi-restricted area (“red line”) includes the peripheral support areas of the
surgery suite, such as storage areas for clean and sterile supplies, instrument
processing areas, scrub sink alcoves, and the corridors leading to the restricted
area. Access to this area is restricted and appropriate surgical attire as well
as covers of head/ facial hair are required. The restricted area includes the
operating rooms as well as the Clean Core. Access to this area is restricted and
appropriate surgical attire, covers of head/ facial hair, and - in some instances
- masks are required. All other areas in the surgery suite are non-restricted with
no specific requirements for attire and covers.

The surgical suite is set up to carefully orchestrate the flow of patients, clinical
and support staff, sterile and soiled goods. It is achieved by on-stage vs. off-stage
circulation organization. A one-way flow of soiled goods out of the operating
room and sterile goods into the operating room on a separate, dedicated route
is preferred. This is best accomplished by grouping operating rooms around the
Clean Core, as illustrated in figures 3.2.8 and 3.2.9. Each Clean Core cluster
shall be limited to 6 to 8 operating rooms in total in order to avoid excessive
patient transportation and travel distances in the semi-restricted corridor.

Introduction:
The Design Standard Plates are intended as general representations of typical space,
furniture and equipment layout, as well as functional and utility supporting needs. The
Design Standard Plates were developed as a design tool to assist the Project Team
in understanding the choices to be made during design, and to assist designers in
understanding VA’s space and functional requirements for Surgical Services. The
Design Standard Plates are not intended to be project specific and are not meant to
limit design opportunities. However, the indicated net square feet (NSF) is the minimum
acceptable square feet (the +/- rule does not apply).
While this information is provided for a majority of spaces required, it is not possible
to foresee all possible variations or future requirements. The project-specific space
program shall be used as the basis for individual project design.
The Design Standard Plates must be reviewed against project criteria and any special
requirements. Users shall follow other VA criteria and standards as required by VA.
Equipment manufacturers shall be consulted for the most current equipment information
such as actual dimensions, weights and utility requirements.

Main Entry of Elmhurst Memorial Hospital
Overview
Elmhurst Memorial Healthcare recently took the opportunity not only to
replace an outdated, landlocked hospital building, but also to redefine the
way they treat patients.
When the system set out to build a replacement facility, it established five
main goals for the new building: clinical quality, safety, market growth,
financial performance and patient satisfaction. Central to these is the patient
experience; throughout the planning process, the health system asked,
“How do you put the patient at the center, and make that stick?”
To answer this question, the system worked extensively with health care
consulting firm Hammes Company, Brookfield, Wis., to research, map and
optimize the patient experience. It also joined the Planetree network, an
organization based in Derby, Conn., that promotes patient-centered care,
including the idea that physical environments can enhance healing, health
and well-being. Planetree’s principles for safe, effective, high-quality care
APPENDIX 5-11
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
that nurture the body, mind and spirit clearly are evident in the newly opened
Elmhurst Memorial Hospital facility, which was designed by Albert Kahn
Associates Inc., Detroit, and Pratt Design Studio, Chicago.
The red brick Prairie-style building is adorned with bands of precast concrete
molded in the design of a Planetree leaf, a motif used throughout the hospital
in tribute to the patient-centered model of care.
Gardens and outdoor seating areas span the front of the building. A water
feature is installed just inside the main entrance to provide a serene entry
sequence for patients and visitors. Oversized windows fill the first-floor,
public concourse with natural light. A number of amenities are located along
the concourse, including a flower shop, wellness boutique, Starbucks,
pharmacy and the hospital’s café.
APPENDIX 5-12
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Each room has a computer work station with an articulating arm that allows
caregivers to position the monitor where it can be seen easily by the patient.
A stool is provided in every room so caregivers can sit down while speaking
with patients.
To save hospital staff the time spent fetching extra seats for visitors, a folding
chair is stored in a cabinet in the family zone of each patient room. A small
table with leaves that fold down for easy storage can be rolled out from
beneath a counter on the footwall to give family and visitors a place to work,
share a meal or play games with a patient. The idea that families, friends
and loved ones are vital to the healing process is important to the Planetree
approach. At the far corner of each room, the walls meet in a smooth curve
rather than a sharp point, a gesture that has surprising impact on making the
room more comfortable.
Integrated, ceiling-mounted patient lifts are installed in each room for staff
and patient safety. Large bathrooms include roll-in showers sized to enable
staff members to assist patients with bathing. The toilet is positioned away
from the corner of each bathroom, providing room for two caregivers, one on
each side, to help a patient sit or stand. Fold-down grab bars are installed
on either side of the toilet to allow patients to help themselves. A recessed
cabinet in the wall of each bathroom stores bedpans and other commonly
used items.
The project team followed the 90/5 rule in designing the hospital. This rule,
which originated in the aerospace industry, states that 90 percent of supplies
should be stored within five seconds of where they are needed. Nurse
servers in each patient room keep supplies close at hand.
Like the patient rooms, the ED exam rooms are private, each with a private
bathroom. Two doors lead into each exam room; the staff work area is on
one side of the exam rooms and the waiting area is on the other, to reduce
noise and chaos.

Model of Care
The Planetree Model of Care has been highlighted as a holistic philosophy
of care that resonates with every department in the facility, including the
Surgical Program. Patients are the center of the care model at Elmhurst
and the staff seek to ensure that patients are brought into for their surgical
cases in a safe and efficient way. The paths that lead patients from
pre-operative assessment through recovery and discharge are clearly
delineated and patients are educated about their surgical process along
the way. Visitors are also thought of in the design with ample pleasant
waiting areas and an invitation to join their loved one throughout their
surgical experience.
APPENDIX 5-14
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
has seen an uptick in procedures related to this. The hospital also has
an established partnership with Northwestern University’s Interventional
Radiology program.
Valet parking is an amenity for surgical patients and their families and
care takers. Outpatients can arrive at the facility the day of surgery and
be ushered through the surgical pathway with care from start to finish.
Families and visitors of inpatients have the same valet availability to come
into the facility to visit pre and post-surgical procedure.
Surgical Suites
There are 15 Operating Rooms (1 Neurosurgical, 2 Cardiac, 1 Cystoscopy)
divided into 2 sections, each with its own Sterile Core. The general
operating rooms and most of specialty operating rooms are 740-780nsf
and the cardiothoracic operating room is approximately 850nsf. The design
has angled room entrances off semi-restricted corridor for brief patient
holding and stretcher/specialty bed storage outside of rooms.
APPENDIX 5-15
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
There were a few changes in design that staff would have made. Mobile
storage was used in the ORs and staff would have preferred built-ins. Staff
preferred to have automatic doors into the ORs because they are manual
as designed and pose an extra step to open them. Staff also felt that the
ORs were undersized for the TAVR program.
Central Sterile
The sterile processing department is located on same floor as the
operating rooms for ease of transport of materials and case carts. This
departmental co-location has reduced case time by 10-15 minutes on
average, as per staff. It was mentioned that more storage was needed in
SPD to accommodate growing specialties.
APPENDIX 5-16
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
There are 48 Prep recovery Phase 2 rooms with 7 shared patient toilets.
The adequately sized rooms are approximately 12X12nsf in configuration
and are three sided with a doored front. This results in increased patient
privacy and improved infection control measure being implemented. The
Pre-op/Phase 2 Recovery rooms have shared bathrooms between every 4
rooms and staff relate that this number of room support space works well
for patient needs.
Ancillary Services
Supporting the surgical program, the ability of the Emergency Department
to flex into self-contained modules departments census grows throughout
day is a benefit to facility patient flow.

Model of Care
Advocate Sherman provided both inpatient and same-day surgical
procedures that space the specialties of orthopedics, cardiothoracic,
urological/gynecological, endovascular, neurologic, oncologic and others.
It was one of the first community hospitals in the country to perform open
heart surgery and enjoys an excellent reputation for comprehensive,
cardiovascular care. The program has 3-Star Quality Rating from the
Society of Thoracic Surgeons for Cardiac Surgery.
APPENDIX 5-25
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
Procedure Rooms
The 12 Operating Rooms included 1 Trauma room and 1 Cystoscopy
room and 2 Cardiothoracic rooms plus rooms for Orthopedics.The surgical
program has a variety of procedure and operating rooms including a Hybrid
OR of approximately 900nsf. This space seemed adequate for the complex
endovascular procedures that are occurring here.
A number of the ORs were less than 650nsf which sometimes posed a
problem with the flow inside of the space as per staff as well as perception
of “elbow room” especially during complex cases that required more
abundant case carts. The specialty Cardiothoracic ORs were only slightly
larger than 650nsf and had the same issues as the other more modestly
sized rooms.
The program currently has 2 Cardiothoracic ORs but is only staffed for 1
room. Leadership noted that they would prefer an additional orthopedic
OR because they only have 3 now and there seems to be a larger volume
of orthopedic procedures on the horizon. The cystoscopy OR was on the
main surgical floor with the ORs and support spaces.
APPENDIX 5-26
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
The floor plan includes staff locker and support spaces as well as an
Anesthesia department work zone including a satellite Pharmacy area and
workroom.
As the group toured it was noted that there seemed to be undersized
equipment storage for the large program.
The program staff utilized a simple white board for tracking patients; a
previous trial of the Cerner tacking board was not preferable to this method
related to inability to fully integrate all of the hospital flow systems into one
platform.
Central Sterile
Central Sterile is located on the same floor as the Surgical program. The
Central Sterile space had no soiled cart holding room. This inefficiency
required that case carts be stored in a back hall and then taken to Central
Sterile for decontamination.
Recovery Rooms
The 17 PACU beds were bays and not 3 sided-rooms. Again, as in other
tour sites, nursing and physician staff stated that they preferred this set-
up because of ease of monitoring multiple patients at once and quick
response to unstable patient situations. There were 2 negative pressure
isolation rooms in the PACU.
Ancillary Services
The surgical program services were located on the same floor as the ICU
which resulted in a quicker transfer of patients post-surgery to the intensive
care environment. Acute inpatient beds for surgical transfers were located
directly above the procedural platform which results in a fast elevator ride
up to the care area.
The Emergency Department was also on the same floor as the Surgical
Department with General Radiology and CT room imbedded in the
program.

Overview
The University of Chicago Medicine is an academic medical center based
on the campus of the University of Chicago. The not-for-profit corporation
offers the full range of specialty and primary care services for adults and
children that includes the Center for Care and Discovery.
The new hospital is a 10-story “hospital for the future” that serves as the
new core of the campus of the University of Chicago Medicine. The Center
for Care and Discovery provides a home for complex specialty care with a
focus on cancer, gastrointestinal disease, neuroscience, advanced surgery
and high-technology medical imaging.
At 1.2 million square feet, the hospital is one of the largest buildings on
APPENDIX 5-33
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
the University of Chicago campus, changing the skyline of the South Side
of Chicago. It occupies the north end of two city blocks, along the south
side of 57th Street between Cottage Grove and Drexel Avenues. Each floor
provides 100,000 square feet of space, the size of a typical Walmart store.
“By far what I hear most is, ‘Wow, it is really huge,’” said Bill Huffman, vice
president of Facilities, Design and Construction for the medical center and
the Division of Biological Sciences.
The hospital’s innovative design also extends to its public spaces. The main
lobby is located on the 7th level and is referred to as the “Sky Lobby.” The
space has floor–to–ceiling glass walls, filling the space with natural light and
providing panoramic views of the campus and downtown Chicago. The Sky
Lobby houses central reception, family waiting areas, a chapel, the gift shop,
dining areas and other public spaces. The ground level of the new hospital,
open to the public, enhances the street-scape and includes cafés and other
retail businesses.

Model of Care
APPENDIX 5-35
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
The majority of the general ORs are approximately 600-700 nsf. Hybrids are
closer to 900nsf. The Prep-Recovery rooms are approximately 110nsf.
There is an integrated nurse call and radiation sensing for staff in the
procedural area.
Procedure Rooms
The Center does not have an integrated platform for Cath/EP/IR and the
Surgical OR area. The programs are on a separate floor. The EP/Cath Lab/
IR spaces are on the 5th floor and the main OR suites are on two others
above. There are 6 EP labs and 5 Cardiac Cath labs.
The facility does have a hybrid TAVR program and staff commented that the
hybrid room is adequate for their needs. There is clear floor space related to
ceiling-mounted booms in all of the ORs.
There is adequate expansion ability for technology in the OR’s and procedural
rooms, including Cath Labs. There are both single and biplane equipped IR
rooms in the facility. The proximity of the Cath Labs to the cardiovascular
surgeon workspace is beneficial to the overall workflow of the center.
Cath labs share a sterile core for supplies and there seems to be adequate
storage space and this is preferred instead of having a large amount of
supplies in the rooms. The labs have image recording capability for image
streaming with 60” screens which the physicians recommend. The cardiac
suites share a control room which staff relate makes it noisy at times.
However, staff note quick response times to emergency between Cath Labs
because of the shared control space. There are 7 IR rooms, 2 biplane and 1
single plane modality set-ups.
APPENDIX 5-36
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
There is a discrepancy between the labs; there are different table heights
between rooms and the higher one is preferred by the physicians.
The Neuro IR room is a long distance to CT/MRI area of the facility and
this sometimes lengthens the time it takes to bring a patient to the area for
testing.
The rooms are arranged in a way that has pods of spaces near groups of
ORs so the travel distances on the platform are reduced.

Overview
The new hospital, known as the “Tower,” is part of a campus-wide
transformation project, which also includes an orthopedic building, parking
structure and new loading and delivery systems. This hospital consists of
adult acute and critical care patient beds along with diagnostic and treatment
facilities, such as surgery, radiology and emergency departments.
APPENDIX 5-47
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
The massing and architectural expression of the north, south and east
respond to the differing surrounding conditions. The north elevation is simple
and large in scale, similar to the adjacent freeway. The east elevation works
in tandem with the orthopedics building to create and reinforce the new entry
boulevard from Ashland. The south elevation weaves the rectilinear and
curvilinear geometry of base and bed tower together to scale the building
down to relate to the environment of the entry boulevard. The difference
in north and south elevation also responds to the internal organizations of
the base. The simpler north elevation expresses the back of house staff
connection corridors. The more layered and scaled down south façade
contains the public elements of the base, such as lounges and waiting areas.
At the junction of the new and old hospital is a multi-story entry pavilion.
Its roof is landscaped to provide a patient and staff garden at fourth floor
that has upper level patient check-in facilities and connects by bridge to the
existing parking structure and. Skylights act as sculptural elements for the
roof garden and provide natural light for the entry pavilion below. The walls
of one of these skylights penetrate through the floor below and introduces
an exterior landscaped space without compromising internal contamination
issues associated with plantings.
The new hospital tower was planned from the inside out, with caregivers
playing a central role in the evolution of building’s design. They collaborated
with the architects to emphasize patient comfort, safety, efficiency and quality
of care. Along with the caregivers, there was also input from patients and
visitors. Patients and families voiced their design concerns to the architect
and offered suggestions on how to create the ideal patient experience. The
architects made these plans come to life with their innovative design, while
creating a distinctive, appealing building shape.

General Overview
The Surgical and Interventional program components are split in the facility
tower.
The services are all located within a semi-restricted corridor and there is
adjacent Anesthesia zones. A large family waiting area rounds out the floor.
The second two interoperative floors have 13-14 ORs and 1 Hybrid room each
APPENDIX 5-49
Surgical Services Design Guide April 2016
They are centered around a long linear sterile core. There are 2 immediate
use sterilizers shared between the rooms. There is a 17 bay PACU with an
additional isolation room. A 23 bed Pre-op/Phase 2 Recovery area is located
on these floors as well.
Procedure Rooms
Several ORs are 650sf but one hybrid room seems undersized for complex
Neurological cases. OR monitors are not integrated in the Hybrid rooms.
There is adequate corridor space outside of the ORs and there are specific
stretcher/patient holding alcoves for each room.
Staff related that the surgical service has 80% on-time starts and uses Epic
Optime for patient tracking with success.
Pre-Op and Recovery Spaces
The PACU layout is configured in open bays and there are 17 spaces per
surgical procedure floor configured around a central team monitoring station.
The Phase 2 Recovery units are split and distributed on the same floors that
ORs occupy to reduce patient/staff travel.
There are 3-sided walls with curtains instead of sliding glass door in Pre-Op/
Phase 2 Recovery rooms. There is the ability for Pre-Op to use Phase 2
Recovery beds in morning when census and activity are the highest. Shared
bathrooms in Pre-Op/ Phase 2 Recovery are a patient satisfier. There is no
patient entertainment/TV in the rooms.
The facility has a Short Stay Unit for those patients needing a longer
observation period but not an inpatient bed after their outpatient surgical
procedure.
Central Sterile
Central Sterile is located on the lower level away from the procedural
area but there are dedicated clean and soiled case cart elevators which
improves efficiency. The area is large and contains an administrative suite,
decontamination, instrument washer and assembly area. Staff related that
the set-up works well and case carts are readily available in convenient
locations for use throughout the operating day.

Architectural Overview
Hines VAH currently operates 471 beds and six community based outpatient
clinics in Elgin, Kankakee, Oak Lawn, Aurora, LaSalle, and Joliet. Over
600,000 patient visits occurred in fiscal year 2010 providing care to over
54,000 veterans, primarily from Cook, DuPage and Will counties. In FY
2010 the budget for Hines was over $510 million.

Procedure Rooms
There are 8 general ORs and 2 Cystoscopy rooms with an additional Cysto
Minor Procedures room. The facility has a hybrid room that is of adequate
size. The hybrid room (OR #8) is configured with GE imaging and a bid has
been put out to replace with new imaging equipment.

or supply storage.
Speakers and call buttons are located per each room’s requirement for
communication.
Central Sterile
The Sterile Processing Department (SPD) is located in the basement
without a dedicated elevator to the OR proper. SPS storage is on the same
floor as the ORs but there are no case cart elevators to SPD. This creates
an inefficient flow from SPS to the surgical suites.
The PACU area has a traditional cubicle configuration with good visibility
from the main staff station.
There is shared family waiting between patient types for ICU, Pre-Op and
Post-Op Recovery/PACU. Staff commented that they would have preferred
to have separate waiting for the ICU patients’ families.
