Introduction: The operating room is one of the most sophisticated workplaces, consisting of a vast array of electrical, gas and radiation equipment that are more susceptible to accident than other hospital departments. Therefore it is important to observe safety tips in this section. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the standard of safety in operating rooms of hospitals affiliated to Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences in 2019.
Method: This study was a descriptive cross-sectional study. The statistical population consisted of all operating rooms of hospitals affiliated to Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences. The tool used was a checklist that was completed by researchers by observation and interviewing on-site. Safety standards have been evaluated in terms of the physical space of the operating room, fire safety, personnel safety, patient safety, infection control. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 21.
Results: The operating rooms of university-affiliated hospitals were 80.10% secure in overall safety. The patient's safety area, with 83.34%, had the shortest distance from the standards and the infection control safety area, with 74.24%, had the highest distance from the standards. The highest and lowest scores were related to the safety standard related to the operating room of hospitals (2) and (1).
Conclusion: According to the findings, the operating rooms of the studied hospitals are generally in desirable compliance with safety standards. However, it is essential to pay attention to problem areas to increase the safety factor for staff and patients in the operating room, so appropriate remedial measures should be taken to ensure complete safety of the operating room for all components.
