Features: The operating room is the place where surgical and related specialty patients undergo surgery. It has always been a crucial department that hospitals pay great attention to and focus on. The management level of the operating room, surgical nursing coordination, and professional standards directly impact the success of surgeries. Especially with the continuous development of modern medicine, advancements in surgical techniques, anesthesia methods, equipment, and surgical instruments are rapid, which places even greater demands on nurses to improve their operating room management skills and technical expertise. In this context, there is an urgent need for a comprehensive and systematic book that introduces operating room management and coordination for various specialties.
In light of this, we invited experienced nursing experts from influential hospitals across the country to compile this "Practical Surgical Coordination Manual" as a reference for operating room nurses at all levels of hospitals. "Practical Surgical Coordination Manual" is a series of large-scale reference books, including seven volumes: "Operating Room Nursing Management," "Surgical Coordination for General Surgery and Pediatric Surgery," "Surgical Coordination for Orthopedics," "Surgical Coordination for Cardiothoracic Surgery and Neurosurgery," "Surgical Coordination for Urology, Gynecology, Plastic Surgery, and Burn Surgery," "Surgical Coordination for Ophthalmology, Otolaryngology, and Maxillofacial Surgery," and "Practical Surgical Instrument Atlas." The content of the entire series is comprehensive, rich, and up-to-date, reflecting the concept of holistic nursing while highlighting the characteristics of the operating room. The book closely integrates basic surgeries with newly developed ones, elaborating on key points of surgical coordination in detail. The surgical steps and coordination are clear, well-organized, and standardized, fully demonstrating the advanced level of domestic surgical practices.
The authors have integrated the management knowledge and professional expertise that modern operating room specialists must master throughout the book, striving for practicality and close alignment with clinical needs to cultivate qualified operating room specialists. With the rapid development of modern surgical disciplines, surgical procedures have undergone a revolutionary leap forward. Especially in the transformation of nursing management theories, models, and concepts in operating rooms, as well as the introduction of market competition mechanisms, the requirements for the ideological and professional qualities of operating room nursing staff have become increasingly stringent. Therefore, we wrote this volume, which focuses on management.
This book systematically and comprehensively introduces the management systems, methods, and forms of operating room nursing. It is an urgent necessity for operating room nursing managers in their work—providing a guide for management. The entire book is divided into 11 chapters, drawing on foreign nursing management models while also incorporating China's practical realities. The content is comprehensive and systematic, primarily focusing on explaining operating room nursing management methods in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. The contributors to this book are experienced nursing management experts and operating room nurse supervisors from representative hospitals. The book reflects the current level of operating room nursing management in China and its future trends.
