Abstract
Objective. Presentation of the scheme of video signal online translation from cameras installed in the operation room (OR) to stationary and mobile devices.
Material and Methods. The scheme of online webcast translation was implemented in the Institute of Neurosurgery on the basis of the existing system of TV broadcasting of video images from the operation room. Translation scheme using additional software and dedicated server, and translation scheme using IP-based cameras and video servers-encoders were designed.
Results. Realized technical decisions allow chief of the department to get visual control of the operating room from any point worldwide using any device with internet access.
Conclusion. The proposed technology has a low cost of implementation and helps to realize a project “Chief in the OR”, providing the online monitoring of surgeon’s activity regardless of the chief location. It may be used for remote surgery live demonstration with audio feedback (congresses, training courses, conferences, etc), and give opportunity for adjustment of the system parameters and further improvement with functional evolution.
