Facilities

Operating Theatre

The department of orthopaedics provides two major operating theatres in 2nd floor “B” block OT complex and two emergency OT in the ground floor of “B” block complex which is functioning round the clock to provide the best patient care.

All OT’s are designed with laminar flow, along with constant Pressure and Temperature Monitoring to ensure “CLEAN” OT. All Theatre practices follow NABH Standard Operating Protocols, which are strictly adhered to and monitored by a designated OT committee which monitors The Quality Indicators, which are regularly reviewed to achieve a more efficient practice.
