Mobile operating room will serve NHS Trust during two-year refurbishment programme

< Back to news
Two cutting edge mobile operating rooms are to help a UK North-West NHS trust maintain and increase capacity during a two-year refurbishment project.

Q-bital Healthcare Solutions is working with Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust at its , UK, site where it has recently delivered and installed two laminar flow operating rooms.

Over the next 24 months the rooms will create a suite be used by the Trust’s own surgeons and anaesthetists to perform a range of procedures including breast surgery, urology and gynaecology operations and minor orthopaedic work. The rooms will operate five days a week.

The hospital is a major acute teaching hospital which is recognised as a centre of clinical excellence. Wythenshawe Hospital has several fields of specialist expertise including cardiology and cardiothoracic surgery, heart and lung transplantation, respiratory conditions, burns and plastics, cancer and breast care services. These not only service the people of South Manchester, but help patients from across the North West and beyond.

The mobile rooms, which were installed and commissioned over the summer, are designed and built by Q-bital. Each provides an anaesthetic room, operating room, two bed first-stage recovery area, staff changing room and utility areas. Both wards are fully integrated in a bespoke way with the existing hospital infrastructure and ensure a seamless journey for the patient.

Q-bital laminar flow room facilities offer HEPA-filtered environmental air that conforms to Grade A EUGMP, with up to 600 air changes per hour passing over the patient, and 25 fresh air changes.

Simon Squirrell, UK North Regional Manager, said: “These two mobile laminar flow operating rooms combined provide an enhanced operating suite for the Trust which will not only allow them to maintain their capacity for breast, gynaecology and orthopaedic procedures while they undergo refurbishment, but will also help them increase it. This ultimately benefits patients who are waiting to be treated.

“We are extremely pleased to be part of the Trust’s solution in maintaining their service levels for patients while they undertake refurbishment work of their existing room provision.
