A $20.6 million verdict. 14 surgeries. A career ended.

This wasn't a hypothetical. It was a real person, a real operating room, and a real breakdown in sterile processing.

Shawn M Flynn was an expert witness on the case. He'll be the keynote speaker at HSPA 2026 and will talk about what actually happened — and what it means for every SPD and OR team in the room.

Architects solve one problem. Clinicians experience a completely different one.

Both groups are in the same room. Neither perspective is wrong. But when those two realities aren't fully aligned before construction begins — the gap shows up during real cases.

Our latest newsletter breaks down exactly how that happens, and what earlier coordination could change.

A room can meet every code. Pass every inspection. Check every box.

And still create friction the moment the first case begins.

It happens more than people talk about. And the reason usually isn't what you'd expect.

We're at the ASHE PDC conference this week and the conversations have been circling all things construction and design.

This Thursday's newsletter digs into why OR design and OR reality don't always match — and what the planning process has to do with it.

More to come Thursday.

New OR construction has a lot of moving pieces — and often takes longer than anticipated.

We’ve worked to simplify the complexity.

FreedomAire is precision-engineered and prefabricated off-site, then delivered ready for assembly.

• Factory-assembled sections reduce installation time
• Integrated lighting, electrical, and medical gas pathways
• Precise seal between modules
• Meets ASHRAE 170 standards

Built off-site.
Assembled on-site.

We’ll be in Houston March 8–11 for ASHE PDC if you’d like to connect.

Some partnerships speak for themselves — and this one will be on full display at AAOS 2026.

Skytron's products will be featured at the Arthrex booth in New Orleans (March 2–6), showcasing what integrated OR solutions look like when imaging and infrastructure are built to work as one.

If you're heading to AAOS this year, stop by the Arthrex booth and see it for yourself.

Jake Gleeson helped lead the Portland Timbers to an MLS Cup championship.

Then a preventable infection — linked to improperly reprocessed implants — ended his career.

In 2025, a jury awarded $20.6 million in damages.
But no verdict gives back what was lost.

Breakdowns in sterile processing are not just operational failures. They are organizational risk — and they carry a human cost that outlasts every headline and every settlement.

In partnership with Advantage Support Services, Inc., Shawn M Flynn is leading a focused conversation on how everyday decisions, authority gaps, and documentation practices create real exposure — for patients, for facilities, and for the people responsible for both.

This conversation will continue at HSPA . But it starts March 11.

Wet packs are rarely caused by one variable.

In this week’s edition of The Sky is the Limit, Jason Simon takes a closer look at the assumptions that often shape how teams respond when moisture appears — especially when daily tests look compliant.

From chamber temperature variance and environmental cooling conditions to inherited dry times and cracked door practices, drying performance is the result of system behavior, not a single setting.

Jason offers a grounded perspective on narrowing assumptions before expanding workarounds.

Wet packs are often treated as a cycle failure.

But as Jason Simon recently shared on the Beyond Clean podcast, passing daily qualification tests doesn’t always mean drying performance is optimized.

Qualification testing verifies specific conditions. It does not always confirm how effectively the vacuum system performs during the drying phase.

In next week’s edition of The Sky is the Limit, we’ll take a closer look at:

• What qualification tests actually validate
• Where drying performance gaps can still occur
• Why extended dry times often become a symptom — not a solution

Sterile Processing challenges often surface as symptoms, not root causes.

Throughput delays, compliance gaps, and survey findings often point to deeper operational factors—workflow design, staffing patterns, or training gaps—that equipment alone cannot resolve. When those root causes go unexamined, organizations risk investing in solutions that don’t address the underlying problem.

That’s why Skytron is partnering with Advantage Support Services, Inc. (ASSI).

ASSI brings independent clinical and operational expertise to Sterile Processing and OR environments, helping leaders clearly distinguish between process challenges and equipment performance before major operational or capital decisions are made.

This partnership is focused on:

• Standards-based compliance support, including ST108
• Readiness and operational assessments that clarify root causes
• Education and guidance that extend beyond installation

For SPD leaders, this means clearer diagnosis, better-informed decisions, and support that reflects the full operational picture—not just what’s on the equipment schedule.

Sterile Processing performance often erodes quietly.

Maintenance may be performed but inconsistently documented. Utilization data becomes distorted by workarounds. Workflow variability creates bottlenecks that remain invisible—until case delays or compliance concerns force the issue.

Skytron is partnering with Surgio Health to strengthen visibility into what’s actually happening across Sterile Processing operations.

Surgio’s platform connects instrument tracking, scope management, vendor coordination, and workflow data to support:

Clearer insight into utilization and capacity

Compliance documentation that doesn’t depend on manual workarounds

Data that informs operational and capital planning decisions

For SPD teams managing increasing complexity and tighter timelines, this partnership reduces blind spots and strengthens confidence in the information guiding day-to-day decisions.

When throughput slows or backlogs form, equipment is often blamed first.

But in many departments, the real constraint lives elsewhere—in workflow timing, documentation practices, and staffing alignment that distort performance signals over time.

This article takes a look at how operational issues are misattributed to equipment, how data credibility erodes, and how those signals complicate long-term planning decisions.
