AVOMA Life brought modular room systems and surgical equipment together across three operating theatres at the hospital’s Referral and Emergency Complex.

One coordinated theatre environment

An operating theatre must accommodate the surgical team, equipment and supporting services within a carefully planned space. Across three theatres, the room construction, ventilation, lighting, tables and ceiling-mounted supply units had to work together.

A collaborative delivery

Our AVOMA Life team worked with CECI Engineering Consultants of Taiwan, Microprojects and MA Consulting on the newly constructed complex. Maquet in Germany custom-manufactured the Variop modular room systems to specification. The project incorporated laminar-flow theatre HVAC.

  • Room systems: Maquet Variop modular theatre environments.
  • Surgical lighting: Maquet Volista lights in each theatre.
  • Operating tables: Alphaclassic Pro tables in two rooms and a Lyra table in the third.
  • Ceiling services: Moduevo surgical pendants and PLG II anaesthesia pendants.
  • Integration: Maquet Tegris for video sources and access to patient images.

The installation coordinated the building services, modular rooms and rooftop ventilation equipment before the final finishes and surgical equipment completed the theatre environments.

Three theatres brought into service

The completed theatres formed part of the hospital’s new Referral and Emergency Complex, which opened on 15 October 2021. The delivery brought modular rooms, theatre HVAC and surgical equipment together in the finished spaces.

The opening was attended by His Majesty King Mswati III and other dignitaries.
