  1. Call 2: Evidence Supporting the Use of the Checklist and The Importance of the Checklist Implementation Team

  2. Topics Covered on the Last Webinar • Checklist Development and Background. • Why South Carolina? • The impact of the Safe Surgery 2015: South Carolina onsurgical safety globally. • Going beyond the “Time Out”.

  3. Meet the Team Lorri Gibbons, RN, BSN, CPHQ VP, Quality & Patient Safety SCHA

  4. Poll 1 • Are you using a surgical checklist that requires the surgical team to stop and discuss critical items at three points of time (Before Induction of Anesthesia, Before Skin Incision, and Before the Patient Leaves the Room)? • Yes • No • If you answered yes, what percentage of surgical cases are using this type of checklist routinely? • <50% • >50% • It is used for every patient undergoing surgery

  5. Today’s Topics • A full review of articles that have been written about the impact of the checklist. • The importance of data to physicians and how to talk to physician’s about data. • Building a Checklist Implementation Team: • Poll • The role that this team plays • Who should be on the team • How often the team should meet • How to find the “right” people to lead this work

  26. What Does the Evidence Mean to Physicians?

  27. There Will Never Be The Perfect Study

  28. Evidence “Driven” Behavior

  29. Believing

  30. Physician Engagement Observed During a Surgical Checklist Implementation

  31. Building an Implementation Team

  32. Poll 2 • Are you listening to the call as a group or an individual? • Group • Individual

  33. Make an Implementation Team Administrator/Quality Improvement Officer Anesthesiologists and/or CRNA Circulating Nurse Scrub Tech Surgeon Others (Perfusionists, PA’s, Biomedical Engineers, Anesthesia Techs, Pre-op nursing, etc)

  34. Find Clinical Champions The nurses will know. Pick those who are respected and who will be supportive. The support of “formal” leadership is absolutely necessary but those leaders are often not the ones who should guide this effort directly.

  35. Recommendations on How Often and When to Meet as A Team • Meet regularly. • Choose someone to organize the meeting schedule and be a point of contact for people in your hospital and our team. • A good time to meet together would be following each webinar. • It is better to meet with part of the group than not at all. • Your physician champions don’t have to be part of every meeting.

  36. What Should You Tell Checklist Implementation Team Members This team will be responsible for the following tasks: • Administering the culture survey • Modifying and customizing the checklist • Guiding small scale testing of the checklist • Devising the implementation plan • Educating and training clinicians to use the checklist • Coaching teams on continued use of the checklist • Regularly report progress to hospital administration

  37. Homework Think about who you are going to have on your checklist implementation team. Please contact Katie Jahreis to administer the culture survey kjahreis@hsph.harvard.edu.
