El trabajo en equipo y la seguridad en cirugía / Teamwork and safety in surgery

ABSTRACT

urgical thinking around errors and patient safety has changed dramatically over the past 15 years. The relevance of effective teamwork, both within the operating theatre but also across the entire perioperative pathway, is acknowledged as a critical component of safe and effective surgical care, resulting in good outcomes and quick recovery for the surgical patient. Consequently, significant efforts have been made to understand how teams work within surgical care pathways and how to improve teamwork.
