Core Operation Theatre Technician Subjects

Understanding the structure and function of the human body gives the foundation for everything you do in OT. You will study major systems - the erotic, the heart, respiration - and learn how surgery affects each.

Here you dive into the world of scalpel, forceps, retraction, moving, and stitches. You will identify equipment, learn proper handling, and help to install procedures ranging from appendectomy to orthopedic repair.

Anesthesia should help doctors know how different anesthesia types work, install machines such as a ventilator, and examine important signs of patients during surgery.

Clear communication can save a life. This topic helps you master medical jargon, read doctors' orders correctly, and relay important information without confusion.
