White Paper: Perioperative Partnership Between Anesthesisa Dept and OR Manager

July 17, 2012 - PRLog -- New Rochelle, NY—July 17, 2012— Somnia Anesthesia, a leading national anesthesia practice management company, has announced a new white paper highlighting the benefits of a collaborative partnership between the operating room (OR) manager and the leadership of the anesthesia team. Studies in recent years have shown that teamwork in the OR is essential to optimal performance, and the anesthesia team, with its critical role in nearly every surgical procedure, is a natural partner for the OR manager.

The white paper, which is entitled “Creating a Perioperative Partnership for Operating Room Managers: How Anesthesia Leadership Can Help” and available for download on Somnia’s website, breaks down the various challenges of OR management. It also demonstrates how a perioperative partnership with anesthesia leadership can help OR managers avoid various potential problems, with results such as minimizing the number of delayed and cancelled surgeries, reducing surgical length of stay, and improving an OR’s quality and efficiency through coordinated medical care.

“The critical role and importance of a transparent and accountable anesthesia partnership throughout the entire perioperative continuum cannot be underestimated,” said Hugh Morgan, Somnia’s vice president of quality management.  “This effective perioperative partnership between OR nursing and Anesthesia is absolutely vital to the operational, clinical, and financial success in creating and sustaining an exceptionally performing Operating Room.”
