Abstract:
Objective::This study aimed to investigate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of using a miniature mobile integrated cabin-theatre equipped with angiography and surgical operating room capabilities, and to explore its therapeutic scope, effectiveness, and operational mode.Methods::A miniature mobile integrated operating cabin-theatre was deployed across 15 hospitals in 15 cities or counties in China from April 2012 to November 2024. The interventions and outcomes of interventional and minimally invasive surgical procedures were prospectively observed and evaluated; perioperative complications were documented, and the stability, adaptability, and mobility of the integrated system were assessed.Results::A total of 133 procedures were successfully performed, 130 of which were interventional and 3 minimally invasive. The angiography machine showed good imaging performance without any equipment failures, loosening, or damage, with normal chamber unfolding. One patient experienced a fever the day after laparoscopy, while none of the other patients exhibited perioperative complications such as infection, surgical site bleeding/hematoma, or reperfusion arrhythmia. The instrument was easily manipulated, aligning with the needs of clinical intervention and surgery, and was perceived by patients as being a comfortable environment, with no psychological or other obvious discomfort.Conclusions::The miniature mobile integrated cabin-theatre, comprising an angiography machine and an operating room, allows interventional or minimally invasive surgical procedures to be performed smoothly and safely. It can also provide rapid and efficient on-site treatment of acute and critical illnesses across multiple body systems, including the cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and gastrointestinal systems.
