Medical Surgical Checklist Boards

Checklists Overview
The WHO Safe Surgery Saves Lives Checklist was created by an international group of experts gathered by the WHO with the goal of improving the safety of patients undergoing surgical procedures around the globe. Input from anesthesiologists, operating theatre nurses, surgeons, patients and other professionals was used in the development of this tool.
The Checklist involves the coordination of the operating team – the surgeons, anesthesia providers, and nurses – to discuss key safety checks prior to specific phases of perioperative care: a “Sign In” prior to induction of anesthesia, a “Time Out” prior to skin incision, and a “Sign Out” before the team leaves the operating room. Many of the checks are already routine in some institutions, but surprisingly, few operating teams accomplish them all consistently, even in the most advanced settings. In our pilot study, we were able to show that use of the checklist increases adherence to safety standards and reduces the rate of complications and mortality associated with surgical care
To date, more than 300 professional societies, health organizations, ministries, and NGOs have endorsed the concept of the Safe Surgery Saves Lives Program. The task of the program now is to build on this momentum and the information we gathered during the pilot study to promote the widespread use, implementation, and dissemination of the Checklist as a safety practice in every operation.
