This paper describes the process and tools developed as part of a multidisciplinary collaborative simulation-based approach for iterative design and evaluation of operating room (OR) prototypes. Full-scale physical mock-ups of healthcare spaces offer an opportunity to actively communicate with and to engage multidisciplinary stakeholders in the design process. While mock-ups are increasingly being used in healthcare facility design projects, they are rarely evaluated in a manner to support active user feedback and engagement. Researchers and architecture students worked closely with clinicians and architects to develop OR design prototypes and engaged clinical end-users in simulated scenarios. An evaluation toolkit was developed to compare design prototypes. The mock-up evaluation helped the team make key decisions about room size, location of OR table, intra-room zoning, and doors location. Structured simulation based mock-up evaluations conducted in the design process can help stakeholders visualize their future workspace and provide active feedback.
本文描述了作为基于多学科协作的模拟方法的一部分开发的过程和工具，该方法用于对手术室 (OR) 原型进行迭代设计和评估。医疗保健空间的全尺寸物理模型为积极与多学科利益相关者进行沟通并使他们参与设计过程提供了机会。虽然模型在医疗设施设计项目中越来越多地被使用，但很少以支持积极的用户反馈和参与的方式进行评估。研究人员和建筑专业学生与临床医生和建筑师密切合作，开发 OR 设计原型，并让临床最终用户参与模拟场景。开发了一个评估工具包来比较设计原型。模型评估帮助团队做出了关于房间大小、手术台位置、室内分区和门位置的关键决策。在设计过程中进行基于结构化模拟的模型评估可以帮助利益相关者可视化他们未来的工作空间并提供积极的反馈。
