<p><em><em>The use of the Surgical Safety Checklist (SSC) is associated with improving patient care according to nursing process standards includes the quality of work of the operating room nurse team. The form of professionalism in the operating room is how the application of a surgical safety checklist as the standard procedure for patient safety in the operating room. This study aims to determine the relationship of characteristics, knowledge, and motivation of nurses in the application of the surgical safety checklist in the operating room of a Batam city hospital. This research is quantitative using an observational analytic research design. This study was conducted on 67 nurses who were taken by total sampling. This research was conducted in three Batam City Hospitals, with hospital accreditation at the same level. Data were analysed by univariate and bivariate using the chi-square test. The results of the study found that most nurses had education at diploma level, with a working period experiences of &gt; 6 months (82%); good knowledge (53.7%) with low motivation (57.7%). There is a relationship between education (p = 0.042); length of work experience (p = 0.010); knowledge (p = 0.002); and motivation (p = 0.05) with the application of SSC. It is expected that health services carry out SSC following the applicable SOPs in the Hospital so that it can reduce work accident rates and improve patient safety.</em></em></p><p><em><br /></em></p><p><em>Penerapan Surgical Safety Checklist (SSC) berhubungan langsung dengan kualitas asuhan keperawatan yang termasuk adalah bagaimana perawat menerapkan fungsi sebagai bagian dari kamar operasi.

Abstract Background Ten years after the introduction of the Chinese Ministry of Health (MoH) version of Surgical Safety Checklist (SSC) we wished to assess the ongoing influence of the World Health Organisation (WHO) SSC by observing all three checklist components during elective surgical procedures in China, as well as survey operating room staff and surgeons more widely about the WHO SSC. Methods A questionnaire was designed to gain authentic views on the WHO SSC. We also conducted a prospective cross-sectional study at five level 3 hospitals. Local data collectors were trained to document specific item performance. Adverse events which delayed the operation were recorded as well as the individuals leading or participating in the three SSC components. Results A total of 846 operating room staff and surgeons from 138 hospitals representing every mainland province responded to the survey. There was widespread acceptance of the checklist and its value in improving patient safety. 860 operations were observed for SSC compliance. Overall compliance was 79.8%. Compliance in surgeon-dependent items of the ‘time-out’ component reduced when it was nurse-led (p < 0.0001). WHO SSC interventions which are omitted from the MoH SSC continued to be discussed over half the time. Overall adverse events rate was 2.7%. One site had near 100% compliance in association with a circulating inspection team which had power of sanction. Conclusion The WHO SSC remains a powerful tool for surgical patient safety in China. Cultural changes in nursing assertiveness and surgeon-led teamwork and checklist ownership are the key elements for improving compliance. Standardised audits are required to monitor and ensure checklist compliance.

Abstract Background: Ten years after the introduction of Chinese Ministry of Health (MoH) version of Surgical Safety Checklist (SSC) we wished to assess the ongoing influence of the World Health Organisation (WHO) SSC by observing all three sections during elective surgical procedures in China, as well as to survey operating room staff more widely about the WHO SSC.Methods: A questionnaire was designed to gain authentic views on the WHO SSC. We also conducted a prospective cross-sectional study at five level 3 hospitals. Local data collectors were trained to document specific item performance. Adverse events which delayed the operation were recorded as well as the professionals leading or participating in the three SSC phases.Results: A total of 846 operating room professionals from 138 hospitals representing every mainland province responded to the survey. There was widespread acceptance of the checklist and its value in improving patient safety. 860 operations were observed for SSC compliance. Overall compliance was 79.8%. The ‘time-out’ phase compliance in surgeon-dependent items reduced when it was nurse-led (p<0.0001). WHO SSC interventions which are omitted from the MoH SSC continued to be discussed over half the time. Overall adverse events rate was 2.7%. One site had near 100% compliance in association with a circulating inspection team which had power of sanction.Conclusion: The WHO SSC remains a powerful tool for patient safety in China. Changes in behaviour for nurses (assertiveness) and surgeons (teamwork) could improve compliance. Random checks of compliance may have merit.

Patient safety has now become a global issue and a critical component of hospital quality management. One of the components in patient safety that must be carried out in the operating room is the application of the surgical safety checklist. Adherence in implementing the surgical safety checklist is influenced by several factors such as the knowledge of patient safety that nurses have. This study aims to determine the relationship between the level of patient safety knowledge and the compliance of nurses in implementing the surgical safety checklist in the Pre-Operation Room, the Operation Room, RSD Mangusada Badung. This study used a quantitative observational method with a cross sectional design. The sample was all nurses in the operating room installation room RSD Mangusada Badung who were selected by a total sampling of 41 people. The research was conducted from 01-31 October 2020. The results of data analysis using the rho Spearman nonparametric statistical test at a significance level of ? 0.05, the p value was 0.000 <0.05. This shows that there is a significant relationship between the level of patient safety knowledge on nurses' compliance in implementing the surgical safety checklist in the Pre-Operation Room for the Operation Room, RSD Mangusada Badung. It is hoped that health workers, especially nurses in the operating room, can increase knowledge about patient safety and be more obedient in implementing the surgical safety checklist.

ABSTRACT Background: Patient safety issues became a global health concern, especially the occurrence of avoidable complications from surgical procedures. In 2008, World Health Organization launched the Safe Surgery Saves Lives program to improve patient safety. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between compliance to surgery safety checklist and incidents among anesthesiology nurses in operation theater at Royal Prima General Hospital, Medan, North Sumatera. Subjects and Method: This study was a cross-sectional study conducted at Royal Prima General Hospital, Medan, North Sumatera, in August 2019. A sample of 25 anesthesiology nurses was selected by the total sampling. The dependent variable was incidents in the operating room. The independent variable was the compliance of anesthesiology nurses on performing surgical safety checklist. The data of nurse compliance were measured by the completeness of filling sign in, time out, and sign out surgical safety checklists. The data were analyzed by chi-square. Results: The incidents in the operating room reduced with compliance in surgical safety checklist filling, but it was not statistically significant (OR= 0.12; 95% CI= 0.01 to 1.95; p= 0.218). Conclusion: The incidents in the operating room reduce with compliance in surgical safety checklist filling, but statistically non-significant. Keywords: surgical safety checklist, incidents, operating room Correspondence: Wienaldi. Department of Public Health, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Prima Indonesia, Medan, Indonesia.
