(4) Fixed encroachments into the minimum clear floor area are permitted to be included when determining the minimum clear floor area for an operating room as long as:
(a) There are no encroachments into the sterile field;
(b) The encroachments do not extend more than twelve inches into the minimum clear floor area outside the sterile field; and
(c) The encroachment width along each wall does not exceed ten per cent of the length of that wall.
(5) Control rooms, if utilized, will:
(a) Accommodate the imaging system control equipment;
(b) Be sized and configured in compliance with manufacturer recommendations for installation, service, and maintenance;
(c) Have view panels that provide for a view of the patient and the cardiovascular surgery team;

(D) Each pediatric cardiovascular surgery service will ensure that a fully equipped and staffed pediatric intensive care unit is available in the building and accessible by gurney from where the pediatric cardiovascular surgery is performed. The number of available pediatric intensive care unit beds will be approximately one-half the number of pediatric open heart operations performed per week. The physical space of this unit will meet joint commission, american osteopathic association, or any other national accrediting body approved for deeming authority by the centers for medicare and medicaid services recommended standards, which are in effect on the effective date of this rule, for intensive care unit beds.
(E) The equipment described in this paragraph may be replaced by newer technology that has equivalent or superior capability as determined by the pediatric cardiac catheterization service.
