How the Pilot's Checklist Came About
• October 30, 1935Wright Field, Dayton, Ohio
• US Army evaluated aircragft to replace aging bombers
• Three manufactures had submitted aircraft for testing.
• Boeing submitted their Model 299. • producer of fighters for U.S. Navy aircraft
carriers, • Boeing’s entry had swept all the evaluations, • figuratively flying circles around the
competition. • Many considered these final evaluations
mere formalities• a major sale would save the company.
![Page 3: Patient safety](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813123550346895d9795f6/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• The aircraft made a normal taxi and takeoff. • It began a smooth climb, but then suddenly stalled. • The aircraft turned on one wing and fell, bursting into flames upon
impact. • The investigation found "Pilot Error" as the cause. • Capt. Hill, unfamiliar with the aircraft, had neglected to release the
elevator lock prior to take off. • Once airborne, Tower evidently realized what was happening and
tried to reach the lock handle, but it was too late.It appeared that the Model 299 was dead. Some newspapers had dubbed it as ‘too much plane for one man to fly.’

• Struggling to keep the project alive - 13 aircraft were ordered for ‘further testing’.
• Douglas, however, received contracts for 133 aircraft for active squadron service.• Any further accidents or incidents with the Model 299 would end its career. • Commanders made this quite clear to all the crews. The pilots sat down and put their
heads together. What was needed was some way of making sure that everything was done; that nothing was overlooked.
• What resulted was a pilot’s checklist. • Four checklists were developed –
• takeoff, • flight, • before landing, • after landing.

• With the checklists, careful planning, and rigorous training, the twelve aircraft managed to fly 1.8 million miles without a serious accident.
• The U.S. Army accepted the Model 299, and eventually ordered 12,731 of the aircraft they numbered the B-17.
• The idea of the pilot’s checklist caught on. • Other checklists were developed for other crew members. Checklists
were developed for other aircraft in the Air Corps inventory.

Problem 1: Unrecognized as a public health issue (cont.)
• Known surgical complications of 3-16%
• Known death rates of 1.5%
At least 7 million disabling complications – including 1 million deaths – worldwide each year

Failure to use existing safety know-how
High rates of preventable surgical site infection result from inconsistent timing of antibiotic prophylaxis
Anesthetic complications are 100-1000x higher in countries that do not adhere to monitoring standards
Wrong-patient, wrong-site operations persist despite high publicity of such events

The Safe Surgery Saves Lives StrategyThe WHO Patient safety project
1. Promotion of surgical safety as a public health issue
2. Creation of a checklist to improve the standards of surgical safety
3. Collection of “Surgical Vital Statistics”

Reality Check
• Currently, hospitals do MOST of the right things, on MOST patients, MOST of the time.
• The Checklist helps us do ALL theright things, on ALL patients, ALL the time

Advantages of using a Checklist
Customizable to local setting and needs Supported by evidence Evaluated in diverse settings around the world Promotes adherence to established safety
practices Minimal resources required to implement a far-
reaching safety intervention

What problems does this Checklist address?
• Correct patient, operation and operative site
• There are between 1500 and 2500 wrong site surgery incidents every year in the US.¹
• In a survey of 1050 hand surgeons, 21% reported having performed wrong-site surgery at least once in their career.²

What problems does this Checklist address?
Safe Anaesthesia and Resuscitation
■ An analysis of 1256 incidents involving general anaesthesia in Australia showed that pulse oximetry on its own would have detected 82% of them.¹

What problems does this Checklist address?
Effective teamwork
■ Communication is a root cause of nearly 70% of the events reported to the Joint Commission from 1995-2005.¹
■ A preoperative team briefing was associated with enhanced prophylactic antibiotic choice and timing, and appropriate maintenance of intraoperative temperature and glycemia.², ³

What problems does this Checklist address?
Minimize risk of infection
■ Giving antibiotics within one hour before incision can cut the risk of surgical site infection by 50%¹, ²
■ In the eight evaluation sites, failure to give antibiotics on time occurred in almost one half of surgical patients who would otherwise benefit from timely administration.

Easy Math
• 234 million people are operated on each year, and >1 million of these individuals die from complications
• At least ½ are avoidable with the Checklist
• 500,000 lives on the line each year
