Abstract

- Surgical site infections occur due to contamination of the wound area by bacteria-carrying particles during the surgery. There are many surgery preparation conditions that might block the path of clean air in the operating room, consequently increasing the contamination level at the surgical zone. The main goal of the current study is to translate this knowledge into a perceivable tool for the medical staff by applying state-of-the-art simulation and visualization techniques. In this work, the results of numerical simulations are used to inform visualization. These results predict the airflow fields in the operating rooms equipped with mixing, laminar airflow and temperature-controlled airflow ventilation systems. In this regard, the visualization uses a virtual reality interface to translate the computational fluid dynamics simulations into usable animations. The results of this study help the surgical and technical staff to update their procedures by using the provided virtual tools.
