Abstract

Preoperative briefings and the 'time out' component of the WHO surgical safety checklist offer unique opportunities to improve the technical and non-technical skills of surgical trainees. The addition of a training briefing--a succinct adjunct to these processes--offers a novel method by which training opportunities can be maximised and learning needs better understood by theatre staff. However, more training is needed for staff in the use of briefings and checklists to achieve the best possible benefit for trainees and patients.
