Abstract
PubMed, Avery Index to Architectural Periodicals, Art Full Text and Art Index Retrospective were queried for key words “architecture” “examination room” and “otolaryngology.” Relevant articles between 1989 and 2024 were reviewed. Two articles were identified. The architecture and medical literature have minimal recommendations for design and architectural details relevant to the otolaryngology examination room. Schematic diagrams of otolaryngology examination rooms were created and the most efficient configuration for the otolaryngology examination room is presented. Our specialty may wish to be proactive about this area of consequence. The medical, art and architecture literature offer minimal guidance for the optimal design and architectural layout of the otolaryngology examination room. An optimal configuration for the design and architectural layout for the otolaryngology examination room is presented.
以 "建筑"、"检查室 "和 "耳鼻喉科 "为关键词查询了 PubMed、Avery Index to Architectural Periodicals、Art Full Text 和 Art Index Retrospective。对 1989 年至 2024 年间的相关文章进行了审查。确定了两篇文章。建筑和医学文献中关于耳鼻喉科检查室的设计和建筑细节建议极少。我们绘制了耳鼻喉科检查室的示意图,并介绍了耳鼻喉科检查室最有效的配置。我们的专业可能希望对这一领域的后果采取积极主动的态度。医学、艺术和建筑文献对耳鼻喉科检查室的最佳设计和建筑布局提供的指导极少。本文介绍了耳鼻喉科检查室的最佳设计和建筑布局:I
期刊介绍:
This large-size, atlas-format journal presents detailed illustrations of new surgical procedures and techniques in otology, rhinology, laryngology, reconstructive head and neck surgery, and facial plastic surgery. Feature articles in each issue are related to a central theme by anatomic area or disease process. The journal will also often contain articles on complications, diagnosis, treatment or rehabilitation. New techniques that are non-operative are also featured.
