Abstract

Abstract The International Health Facility Guidelines 2023 provide critical recommendations for operating room (OR) design and management, addressing layout, equipment specifications, and safety protocols. By adhering to these guidelines, healthcare facilities can ensure optimal conditions for surgical procedures, minimise risks to patients and staff, and enhance overall efficiency. These recommendations serve as a vital resource for healthcare administrators, architects, and medical personnel, facilitating high-quality surgical care and improved outcomes for trauma patients.
