OT Scheduling
Schedule surgeries with conflict detection, pre-op checklists, and OT reports
Overview
Book surgeries for specific OT rooms with full team assignment (Surgeon, Anesthesiologist, Scrub Nurse, OT Technician) and estimated duration. The system automatically detects scheduling conflicts and prevents double-booking. A 12-item pre-operative checklist ensures all safety checks are completed before the procedure begins.
