This research study focused on recording activities occurring in corridors of a Spinal Cord Injury Unit and a Brain Injury Unit and how the design of the corridor influences the activities affecting patients and staff experience. The study results focused on three factors: mobility/movement, delivery of care and experience of that care, and finally “spillover space” activities (activities occurring in the corridor other than mobility/movement).

There are many operating rooms (ORs) constructed more than 30 years ago that remain operational today, and many of these spaces are inadequately designed to withstand the processes, equipment, and people needed for contemporary OR procedures. Even in developed countries, patients undergoing inpatient surgeries experience major complications 3-22% of the time.

Human skin is covered in both pathogenic and non-pathogenic flora, which can be transmitted from surface to surface in a way that may or may not be associated with nosocomial infection. The transmission of microorganisms within healthcare environments presents the possibility of nosocomial infection, especially in the cases of Staphylococcus aureus, enterocci, Pseudomonas spp, Klebsiella spp, and Acinetobacter spp.
