Abstract

BackgroundDespite numerous efforts to improve surgical safety, adverse events and serious surgical complications are still common. This cross-sectional study at a tertiary hospital in Ontario, Canada, aimed to examine nurses' perceptions, awareness, comfort, and readiness to use Operating Room Black Box (ORBB) technology, implemented to reduce surgical errors.MethodsA mixed method was used and data was collected through a 14-item questionnaire in summer 2022.ResultsAmong 50 nurse participants, nurses with work experience <20 years had higher overall mean scores on 9 questions than nurses working >20 years. The majority (88.0%) had no prior ORBB experience but somewhat agreed that ORBB had the potential to improve the safety culture in the operating room.ConclusionOverall, nurses demonstrated positive attitudes towards ORBB technology, indicating its potential to enhance safety culture, team communication, teamwork, situational awareness, feedback on performance, the debriefing process, transparency, and lead to technological advancements in healthcare.

手术室黑匣子（ORBB）：检查护士在手术环境中的认知。

尽管为提高手术安全性做出了许多努力，但不良事件和严重的手术并发症仍然很常见。这项横断研究在加拿大安大略省的一家三级医院进行，旨在调查护士对手术室黑匣子（ORBB）技术的认知、意识、舒适度和使用准备情况，该技术旨在减少手术错误。方法采用混合方法，于2022年夏季进行问卷调查，问卷共14项。结果参与调查的50名护士中，工作年限为20年的护士居多。大多数（88.0%）之前没有ORBB经验，但在一定程度上同意ORBB有可能改善手术室的安全文化。结论总体而言，护士对ORBB技术表现出积极的态度，表明其有可能加强安全文化、团队沟通、团队合作、态势感知、绩效反馈、汇报过程、透明度，并导致医疗保健技术进步。
