Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to examine the operating room space performance, which is one of the special places of the hospitals, on the basis of occupation, age and gender variables of the staff working in the academic and administrative staff, which is considered as internal users. This research is done on the basis of internal user scanning model. Working group; Erciyes University Faculty of Medicine consists of all personnel working in the operating rooms of the Gevher Nesibe Hospital and who can answer the questionnaire. 89 staff working in the operating room, ie the majority of employees, participated in the study. In the research, the questions of age, profession, gender, education, departments studied, and aesthetics, comfort and function questions regarding perception of space performance were asked in order to get to know the participants. For this; The Space Perception Measurement Quastinarie (TSPMQ) developed by us was developed and used. As a result of the study conducted for the operating rooms, which are the most important unit of the hospitals, the function direction and quality of the architectural space and the performance of the building elements were determined. As the operating room academic and administrative staff participating in this research had different perceptions on the subjects such as the temperature and lighting of the space, it was found that the indoor environment measurements should be made with the variables of internal user age, gender, occupation and the use of relaxing space data especially in the rest areas of the internal user. In addition, according to the developing technology in the existing operating theaters, it is recommended to plan the surgical rooms from the ground, and for the new operating theaters, the surgical rooms are designed by considering these technologies. It is hoped that the study will contribute to user satisfaction and total quality management of spatial and structural members of operating theaters, architects, hospital administrations and studies to be conducted in the legislation.
