  • Surgery checklist

  • It is amazing how something so simple can save so much morbidity. Thank you Dr. Gawande for your drive to improve medical practice.

  • I am just now finishing reading the "Checklist Manifesto" written by Dr. Gawande and found it very interesting. Not only did the book prove interesting and entertaining, I am now convinced that checklists can be used in a number of areas.

    I also like how the group decided to use Youtube to delivery the very brief but useful training video on the Surgical checklist. Bravo!
