Background: A well-structured and fully functional operation theatre is essential for any tertiary care hospital. It’s quite challenging to meet the needs of healthcare services in constantly changing environment and administration issues. The 11th hour cancellation of planned operations is quite traumatic and depressing for the patient. Cancelation of elective surgical operations often induces considerable mental distress to patient populations, their families, and the population in general. It has a significant effect on healthcare services due to excessive hospital stays and increased health services entrainment. Elective procedure cancellations often result from inadequate use of staff and medical services. This study aims to determine the frequency, reasons, and history of cancellation of elective surgery in AVBR Hospital, Wardha. Methodology: This will be an observational study to assess the utilization of Operation Theatre in AVBR hospital, Wardha. The secondary data will be obtained from the Operation Theatre Records. Statistics of number of surgeries and Surgery time taken will be recorded. Data on reasons for cancellations will be obtained and necessary information will be obtained from the OT Staff through structured questionnaires and interviews. Data will be analyzed with appropriate statistical tests. Expected Result: Data on reasons for the cancellation of planned surgeries. Conclusion: Appropriate planning and availability of required material and manpower resources is essential for appropriate management of Operation Theatres and avoid wastage of man-hours.
