“…Locally-defined policies have resulted in hospital-specific methods of implementing (medical) equipment and thus in a variety of implementation activities. In turn, this variety has resulted in different implementation outcomes and increased implementation lead times, which can result in the increased use of resources, such as implementation time, funds, and involved members (Wickramasinghe et al, 2008). In our opinion, integral holistic implementation guidelines for (medical) equipment in ORs should be available to ensure safe surgical and treatment interventions.…”

Medical equipment is implemented in highly complex hospital environments, such as operating rooms, in hospitals around the world. In operating rooms (ORs), technological equipment is used for surgical activities and activities in support of surgeries. The implementation of government policies in hospitals has resulted in varying implementation activities for (medical) equipment. These result in varying lead times and success rates. An integral and holistic protocol for implementation does not yet exist. In this study, we introduce a protocol for the implementation of (medical) equipment N. Sewberath Misser et al. in ORs that consists of implementation factors and implementation activities. Factors and activities are based on data from a systematic literature review and an explorative survey among surgical support staff on factors for the successful implementation of technological and (medical) equipment in ORs. The protocol consists of five factors and related implementation activities: the establishment of a project plan, organisational preparation, technological preparation, maintenance, and training.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Sewberath Misser, N., Jaspers, J., van Zaane, B., Gooszen, H. and Versendaal, J.
