A new study confirmed that a surgical team to discuss the fast does not exceed a duration of minutes prior to surgery reduces the possible errors which occur due to the lack of communication between team members.
The head of Research Center of the Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Martin Makari, who is also the lead author of the study: "Despite our lack of the existence of a periodic report errors surgical occurring so that we can assess the extent of Almscalh we found that the meeting of surgical teams increase the awareness of employees of the process and their knowledge of factors safety to be followed ".
Makari and confirms that surgical errors are rare but they occur can be prevented.
A previous study conducted in the state of Massachusetts more than 2.8 million surgeries over 20 years has confirmed that the errors that may appear in one out of every 112,994 surgeries.
The Johns Hopkins University Hospital have been circulated the previous Help program for surgical operations in June 2006.
To reach these results, researchers may have an opinion poll of 147 surgeons and 59 doctors and 187 nurse anesthesia and 29 catalyst in the operating room prior to circulation of the program three months after it was introduced.
The program provides to meet members of the surgical team for two minutes before surgery to receive instructions as begins with each person his name and his role as the chief surgeon lists the instructions and Altbhet including personal patient and place of surgery, nature and potential risks to the patient's life and health.
The meeting is being Bmejrd anesthesia patient before surgery.
The 13.2% of workers in operating theaters has confirmed that after the training program to help pre-surgery that the new policy would be effective in reducing surgical errors agreed with more than 90% of them that the discussion is very important for the safety of the patient's next for surgery.
The study will be published in the February issue of the next American College of Surgeons.
According to the Joint Committee responsible for the evaluation and adoption of more than 15,000 institutions and health program in the United States on the need for workers in the operating room to discuss the fast before all the surgery they make. But the Commission did not circulate the program as a general rule followed in the country.
Makari says: "The Joint Committee considered that the lack of communication between members of the surgical team is the main cause of surgical errors., Suggesting our search to the belief of most workers in the operating room that directly discuss the fast before surgery to prevent these mistakes."
