The Surgical Safety Checklist Revisited

Surgical Procedure, Unspecified | Tool Use Behavior | Communications Personnel

The goal of this study is to develop and iteratively improve a toolkit - the "High-Performance Checklist" (HPC) toolkit - that provides clinicians with evidence-informed strategies for improving their Modification, Implementation, Training on, and Evaluation of the Surgical Safety Checklist.

The study team will test the toolkit in the operating rooms of Calgary's Peter Lougheed Centre and collect feedback via surveys and questionnaires. This feedback will be used to iteratively improve the toolkit.

By improving clinicians' ability to modify their SSC, the study team hopes to see improvements in its uptake and surgical outcomes for patients.

Participants will be surgical clinical staff members and hospital administration, as well as participants over the age of 18, who have undergone a surgery in the last 90 days. They will all complete the following tasks:
