3. How Did the Homework Go?

4. Homework to Date Slide 1 of 3 Build an implementation team. Schedule a time and venue for a meeting to take place after January. Download the OR Personnel Spreadsheet from our website and begin completing the information with the names, roles, and email addresses if relevant. Review the checklist modification guide and South Carolina Checklist Template. Modify the checklist with your implementation team and use it in a “table-top simulation”. Test the checklist with one team and modify if necessary.

5. Homework to Date Slide 2 of 3 Email us a picture of your checklist implementation team. Identify departmental meetings to have the implementation team speak after call 10. Expand the testing of the checklist to one team using the checklist for every case for one day. Modify the checklist as necessary. Email us your hospital’s checklist. If you haven’t already done so, please call or email our team about whether you would like to administer the culture survey. Email everything to safesurgery2015@hsph.harvard.edu

6. Homework to Date Slide 3 of 3 Identify people that you think will be skeptical of using the checklist. If possible we would like for you to start organizing yourselves for the one-on-one conversations. Start conducting one-on-one conversations.

7. Poll 1: Since Our Last Call, Have You Had One-on-One Conversations with people that work in the OR? Yes No, but we are planning on conducting them over the next several weeks No and we are not planning on conducting them.

8. Poll 2: If You Answered Yes, How Did it Go? (Please Check All That Apply) Good, it helped engage them in the project. Okay, I don’t know if it made a difference. It did not go well.

9. Our Trip to South Carolina One-on-one conversations with physicians. Difference between the JC Timeout and the checklist.

15. Finalizing Your Hospital’s Checklist: A Few Reminders

16. Communication Counts The easy way out with the checklist is to remove the communication items. The communication items make the difference in American hospitals. You will know if you have your checklist right, when you hear everyone’s voice.

17. Does Our Checklist Contain the Critical Elements? 1. Does your surgical checklist have three phases in the OR, before induction of anesthesia, before skin incision, and before the patient leaves the room? 2. Are the items on the checklist meant to be read aloud, without reliance on memory, so all members of the team can hear them? 3. Does every person that is present in the operating room have the opportunity to say something before skin incision, at a minimum they introduce themselves by name and role or state that they are ready to proceed? (This includes perfusionists, surgical assistants, PAs, residents, observers, manufacturer representatives, and other observers)

18. 4. Will the surgeon share an operative plan and discuss: anticipated blood loss, expected duration of the procedure, possible difficulties, and implants or special equipment needed for the case with the entire team before skin incision? 5. Will the nurses and surgical techs discuss with the entire team their concerns about the patient? 6. Will the anesthesia providers discuss with the entire team the anesthetic plan and airway or other concerns? Does Our Checklist Contain the Critical Elements Continued:

19. 7.Will the surgeon ask the entire team to speak up if they have any concerns during the case? 8.Before the patient leaves the OR will ALL members of the surgical team discuss equipment problems that need to be addressed, key concerns for recovery and management, and anything that could have been done better to make the case safer or more efficient? Does Our Checklist Contain the Critical Elements Continued:

20. We will never know which patient the checklist helps because of information that was shared and problems that were prevented.

21. Displaying the Checklist

22. TestingRoll-Out Have circulator hold the checklist up in front of clinicians so they can read their parts aloud. Have multiple copies of the checklist in the OR. Poster Electronic Medical Record Paper

23. One Size Might Not Fit All If you have an Ambulatory Surgery Center they might need a different version of the checklist. Cardiac Surgery might also need a different version of the checklist.

30. This Week’s Homework Continue to administer the culture survey. Have one-on-one conversations with as many people as you can. If possible, hold one-on-one conversations with the people that you identified as possible skeptics before you hold a large meeting talking about the checklist. Mark your calendars to attend the 2012 April Patient Safety Symposium. Create a checklist demonstration video for your hospital. Decide if the checklist will be used in paper of poster form. Finalize your hospital’s checklist, please send it to us so we can see how you made the checklist work for you. Think about ways to advertize the checklist in your hospital.
