1 Ryan D. Lewis MD MHA Capstone Advisor: Ayse Gurses, PhD, Assistant Professor, Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine The Johns Hopkins School of Medicine Can a Device-Use Checklist Reduce Medical Errors in the Operating Room? A Literature Review

2 Overview Introduction Methodology Results Discussion Summary

3 Device-Use Error Human Limitations (memory distraction) Device Complexity (multiple parts multiple steps) System Limitations (teamwork communication) Device-Use Error

4 Devices Are Becoming More Complex Image Source: The Vein and Vascular Institute of Tampa Bay; tampavascularsurgeon.com

5 Classification/Regulation FDA Device Classification Class I Class II Class III – highest risk IFUs

6 Medical Errors Device-Related Errors Surgical Device Errors Complex-Invasive Surgical Device (CISD)Errors

12 Could CISDs Benefit From Checklists? Image Source: Glass cockpit, amevoice.com; Printable wedding checklist, portaweddings.com; Robotic surgery, spectrum.ieee.org

13 Methodology Literature search for articles relating to: Checklists in medicine, surgery, for surgical devices Device-related adverse events Distributed cognition theory Adverse events and memory/distraction Human error theory Instructions for use Others No articles found describing checklists for CISDs

14 Results Description of the public health problem Magnitude of the problem Causes and determinants Prevention and intervention

15 Magnitude of the Problem Medical Errors Device-Related Errors Surgical Device Errors Complex-Invasive Surgical Device (CISD)Errors 44,000-98,000/year = $24 billion 1 83.7/1000 hospital visits 2 ???

20 Discussion Checklists work Devices are becoming more complex Limitations of the literature Criticism of checklists Future studies

21 Summary CISD-use errors occur at some undetermined rate The causes and determinants for surgical errors are likely the same for CISD-use errors A device-use checklist could be explored as an intervention
