Kurzfassung:
Despite adoption of checklists and timeouts in many operating rooms across the country, surgical errors continue to happen. Our program will address some of the myths associated with checklists, including that stand‐alone error prevention strategies such as checklists prevent wrong‐side surgeries or that checklists should be mandated and will prevent errors. We will then discuss how the checklist process needs to be augmented with specific surgeon‐as‐leader behaviors: effective team building, communication, and creating a safety focus. We will also discuss some of the challenges around developing and building these techniques and behaviors in our institutions. Educational Objectives: (1) At the end of this session, attendee surgeons will demonstrate improved leadership skills. (2) Upon completing this session, attendee surgeons will learn the skills necessary to establish a high‐functioning team.
