Modular operation theatre (OT) installation and CAMC

Operation theatres, built to stay sterile.

UNISSI designs, supplies and installs modular operation theatres for medical colleges and hospitals, and maintains them under CAMC. We also upgrade running theatres: new HEPA filters, antistatic flooring and panel repairs.

What goes into a modular OT

Everything in the room, from one contractor.

We supply and install each of these as part of a turnkey OT, or on its own when you are upgrading one.

How a modular OT stays clean

Clean air down over the table, dirty air out at the floor.

The air handling unit filters and conditions the air, and the HEPA ceiling lets it fall slowly over the operating table. The downflow carries particles from the surgical team away from the wound to low-level return grilles. The room is held at a higher pressure than the corridor so dirty air cannot drift in. Tap any part to see what it does, or tap the door to open it. The figures follow the NABH guidelines for air conditioning in operation theatres (2018).

Situation

Swipe sideways to see the whole theatre.

Modular operation theatre airflow schematic The air handling unit above the theatre takes in fresh air, mixes it with return air, filters it, cools and reheats it, and blows it through HEPA filters in the laminar airflow ceiling. The clean air flows slowly down over the operating table, carries particles from the surgical team down to low-level return grilles, and goes back to the air handling unit. The theatre is kept at a higher pressure than the corridor so air leaks out, not in.

Questions hospitals ask us

Modular OT questions

What is a modular operation theatre?

A modular OT is built from factory-made wall and ceiling panels, sealed doors and a laminar airflow ceiling with HEPA filters. The room is airtight and held at positive pressure, so it is easier to keep sterile and to clean than a conventional plastered theatre.

What is included in a modular OT CAMC?

Scheduled preventive maintenance of the panels, doors, laminar airflow and control panel, breakdown repairs, and replacement of HEPA filters and worn parts as the contract specifies.

Can you replace OT flooring without shutting the whole OT complex?

Yes. We work one theatre at a time: remove the old flooring, lay self-levelling and a copper earthing grid, fix the 2 mm antistatic vinyl and connect the grid to the panel earth. The rest of the complex keeps running.

Do you build modular ICUs and CCUs as well?

Yes. We plan, install and service modular ICU and CCU rooms, with bed head panels, medical gas outlets and nurse call systems.

Planning a new OT or upgrading one?

Send us the number of theatres, the drawings if you have them, and the hospital's location. We will arrange a site visit.
