Abstract

Background: A team in the operating room (OR) is a hierarchically structured, gender-mixed group of people belonging to different professional categories. Disparities in the objectives of the different team members under economic pressure to perform, are sources of potential conflict in the daily work routine. This may have a negative impact on patient safety and commercial efficiency of hospital management.

Objective: The aim of this summary is to sensitize the reader to the complex of problems in daily life in the OR and to increase awareness of possible approaches to solve the difficulties in an OR. Problem solutions might be approached by improvement of communication and team building.

Methods: Narrative review of current literature and expert recommendations by a literature search in PubMed and Medline; keywords included teamwork, communication, operating room, team building.

Results and conclusion: Communication and teamwork in the OR are of immense importance for patient safety and the economic development of a hospital. Improvements in communication structure, among other things due to the implementation of a team time out and moderation from outside (OR manager) offer solutions to avoid conflicts in everyday clinical practice.
