Abstract
The WHO Surgical Safety Checklist has been instrumental in reducing surgical deaths by 47% globally since its inception in 2009. A study was conducted to assess the compliance of hospital staff with the Surgical Safety Checklist and identify potential barriers to its implementation at a large tertiary public hospital in Vietnam. The study analysed 135 surgical cases between February and September 2021 using the Pareto principle with eight error categories, including (1) patient identification, (2) equipment, (3) risk management, (4) blood loss, (5) allergy, (6) items left inside the patient, (7) surgical specimens and (8) patient safety and recovery management. Compliance with the Surgical Safety Checklist was between 77% and 93%, with five categories accounting for more than 80% of errors. Periodic monitoring and staff training can improve compliance and help reduce errors for better patient safety. Long-term solutions addressing infrastructure challenges are also crucial.
