This study focuses on the mid-term management theory of equipment lifecycle and systematically examines the impact of operating room instrument management on operational efficiency optimization. The review mainly covers four key aspects: operator training, information technology application, cost control, and quality assurance. The results indicate that mid-term management plays a crucial role in the full lifecycle management of operating room equipment and plays a key role in improving the quality of operating room operations. This management model is undergoing a profound transformation from experience driven to evidence-based practice, and from single control to system integration. Future research should focus on developing standardized evaluation metrics, scalable digital management platforms, and cross institutional data sharing models for optimizing the lifecycle of medical devices.

Objectives: The objective of this work is to provide comprehensive training on the workflow of sterile medical devices (SMDs) in the operating room (OR) with the help of an exhaustive booklet and the introduction of an evaluation to assess OR nurses and hospital pharmacy technicians knowledge.
Methods: Each section of the booklet was written based on internal quality documents related to the SMD workflow at our hospital and was institutionally validated. A multiple-choice questionnaire based on the booklet was developed.

Far-UVC systems and air cleaners are effective strategies for controlling airborne pathogen transmission, particularly in densely occupied spaces with insufficient ventilation, such as school classrooms. This study evaluates the disinfection performance and ozone (O) formation of different far-UVC systems and air cleaners in a standard-sized classroom using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. Results show that ceiling-mounted far-UVC systems reduce airborne pathogen exposure by up to 30 % more than upper-room and wall-mounted configurations, based on intake fractions and room-average concentrations.

Background: Although prior studies have estimated the burden of pediatric surgical disease in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) through statistical modeling and hospital- or household-based surveys, few large-scale descriptions of procedures and outcomes have been published. We aimed to describe the epidemiology and outcomes of children's surgical care at multiple centers across Africa.
Methods: Perioperative clinical data were collected prospectively from 2018 to 2023 at 17 hospitals in 11 African countries using a preexisting tool.
