UC DAVIS HEALTH MEDICAL CAMPUS OR MODERNIZATION INTEGRATION

The goal of this project is to integrate OR technology on the UC Davis Health¿s Surgery & Emergency Services Pavilion (SESP) and Same Day Surgery Center (SDSC) in Sacramento, California by addressing needed upgrades to the OR Lights/Monitor booms due to boom failures beyond the ability to repair and/or replace parts.

In the SESP building, the OR Modernization project will upgrade the Audio/Visual Technology within the twenty-four (24) operating rooms. This includes combining the AV network head end equipment into one new centralized AV Room. Four (4) of the twenty-four (24) ORs will require conversion to Cardiovascular Operating Rooms (CVOR¿s), requiring reconfiguration of the room orientation, structural components, medical gas needs, laminar air flow, and technology upgrades. The project will include equipment improvements to the Pre-Op and PACU areas, including remodel of the SESP L3 OR Waiting Room.
