Is a cold OR really better for patient infection prevention, or is it just another myth we’ve been holding onto for too long?
In this week’s episode, we’re joined by Garret Hollenbeak, System Infection Preventionist at Bon Secours Mercy Health and Editor-in-Chief of our sister podcast, Transmission Control.
Together, we dig into the science behind temperature management in the OR, breaking down the difference between room temperature and patient temperature, the importance of maintaining normothermia, and how factors like humidity, staff comfort, and infection prevention all connect. We'll also discuss how teamwork between infection prevention and OR staff is essential for keeping patients safe.
🎧 Tune in to hear why a “cold” OR might not be as protective as you think, and how evidence-based practice helps us strike the right balance between comfort, safety, and outcomes.
