Operating room (OR) complexity and costs keep increasing while technologies used for scheduling and management of the OR workflow remained unchanged. To address this need, we developed SmartOR, an array of sensors placed at key points in the OR to automatically track activity, and BoardProbe, an electronic whiteboard which supports organization and collaborative activity within the surgical suite. We describe on this poster the process of linking these technologies to bring situational awareness to the board runner and the surgical team and facilitate OR workflow
