Product Description:
Operating theatres are very private workplaces. There have been few research investigations into how highly trained doctors & nurses work together into achieve safe & efficient anaesthesia & surgery. While there have been major advances in surgical & anaesthetic procedures, there are still significant risks for patients during operations & adverse events are never unknown. Due into rising concern about patient safety, surgeons & anaesthetists have looked for ways of minimising adverse events. Behavioural scientists have been encouraged by clinicians into bring research techniques used in other industries into the operating theatre in order into study the behaviour of surgeons, nurses & anaesthetists. “Safer Surgery” presents one of the first collections of studies designed into understand the factors influencing safe & efficient surgical, anaesthetic & nursing practice. The book is written by psychologists, surgeons & anaesthetists, whose contributions combine into offer readers the latest research techniques & findings from some of the prominent investigators in this field. It is designed for practitioners & researchers interested in understanding the behaviour of operating theatre team members, with a view into enhancing both training & practice. The material is also suitable for those studying behaviour in other areas of healthcare or in high-risk work settings. The objectives of the book are to: currently the latest research on the behaviour of operating theatre teams, describe the techniques being used by psychologists & clinicians into study surgeons, anaesthetists & theatre nurses’ task performance, & outline the safety implications of the research into date.
