Checklist Modification Basics
The Basics
• One size doesn’t fit all. Every hospital should modify the checklist (more than one checklist might be needed).
• Checklist modification creates buy-in and ownership.
• The checklist is designed to promote teamwork and communication . . . don’t remove teamwork/communication items.
Things to Keep In Mind When Modifying the
Checklist
Brief• Each section (Before Induction of
Anesthesia, Before Skin Incision, and Before the Patient Leaves the Room) should take < 1 minute.
• The checklist should never take longer than the procedure.
• The checklist should fit on one page.
When Adding and/or Removing Items Ask Yourself . . . .
Is this a critical safety step at risk for being
missed?
Is this adequately checked by
other mechanisms?
Is this item discussed at a time when all relevant team members are
present?
Can something be done about
it?
Is this a safety step that you
might not notice if it is not done?
Is the Checklist the Best Way to Take Care of This?
• Glycemic Control• Fire Risk Assessment• Hair Removal • Checking Pressure Points
“If the item will not help you, will this item help
anybody here?”
