Operation theatre management software that runs the whole OT day
Caresoft OTMS manages the operation theatre from surgery request to case closure. It schedules theatres with cleaning intervals, enforces the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist, records anaesthesia and operation notes, tracks CSSD sets and OT stock, and bills from actual OT time.
What you get
- 12-step case workflow with hard stops at every safety step
- Runs standalone or linked to Caresoft HIS
- Live OT board for the team and relatives
- Surgeon mobile app with voice-dictated notes
- NABH-ready records and full audit trail
Safety steps it enforces
Start the incision before the WHO Time-Out is complete
Time-Out is a required step. The "Start surgery" button stays locked until every item is ticked.
Close a case when the swab count does not match
Initial, closing and final counts are compared item by item. A mismatch blocks completion.
Wheel the next patient into an OT that is still being cleaned
The cleaning interval runs after every case. Patient-in is locked until cleaning is signed off.
Questions
What is OT management software?
OT management software runs the operation theatre from surgery request to case closure: scheduling, pre-op checks, the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist, intra-operative records, operation notes, recovery and billing. Caresoft OTMS does all of this and enforces each safety step before the next one can start.
Does Caresoft OTMS work without Caresoft HIS?
Yes. It runs standalone with its own patient registration, billing and receipts, or linked to Caresoft HIS so patients, admissions, charges and operation notes flow both ways. Each hospital chooses its mode.
How long does it take to go live?
A standalone OT can start within days: masters for OTs, procedures and staff are set up, then the team is trained on a live list. Integrated go-live depends on the HIS link, which uses Caresoft's existing HIS API.
Is patient data secure?
Each hospital's data is isolated, every action is audit-logged, sessions time out on shared OT terminals, and the live board masks patient names. Caresoft is certified for ISO 27001.
