Biomedica Jan ;17:17-20.

The Urology operation theater Mayo Hospital Lahore was shifted from the previous building to the new premises. A prospective study was planned to study the changes in bacterial flora in both operation theaters. A higher percentage of microorganisms were isolated from the functioning old operation theater as compared to the new non functioning operation theater. After functioning of the new operation theatre the number and percentage of isolated microorganisms increased, whereas it decreased in the old operation theater after it became nonfunctioning. The resistance of staph aureus decreased in the old operation theater after it stopped functioning whereas it increased for Erythromycin in the new operation theater after it started functioning.
