Today’s Topics• Polls

• Last week’s case study results

• Case studies

• Coaching Continued:

– A quick review

– When to coach in the OR

– “Let’s Head into the OR” – Coaching Demo

Poll: Have You Finalized Your Checklist

• Yes

• No, we are still making minor modifications to the checklist

The team at Harvard Hospital spent 2 months in small scale testing and refinement of their checklist. They had two fully engaged surgeon champions and an

enthusiastic anesthesiologist on their implementation team. They met, did table top simulation and then introduced the checklist into two operating rooms –

out of a total of 40 in the hospital. Then they mapped out a plan to introduce it to the rest of the OR. They

ranked the services in order of difficulty. But they tried to be “aggressive” with their timeline and

wanted to go from 2 ORs to 40 in less than a month.

Last Week’s Case Study: A Quick Review & Results

Last Week’s Case Continued

They did try to have someone from the implementation team in the OR to watch each

time a new surgeon used the checklist – to answer questions and to make sure that the

checklist was being used the “right way”. But they only watched once for each surgeon and then moved on. They had a lot of work to do.

They met their goal on time. Every OR in one month. Success. 

Last Week’s Case Continued

They went back 3 months later to check – did an “audit” and found that over half of the time the checklist wasn’t being used.

In fact, they even saw times when the Joint Commission time out wasn’t being done. But in the OR’s where they had

started – the two surgeons were still using the checklist – and using it well.

Reflect on What Worked When You Tested the

Checklist• Arrange things in order of anticipated difficulty. Start

with the surgeon or service that you think will be the most accepting.

• Create a timeline.• Be flexible. • Give enough time to do the work. It always takes

longer than people initially think.• Assign a member of the checklist implementation

team to the area that will be using the checklist. They will be available to talk to surgical teams and trouble shoot any problems.

Your Feedback to The Team At Harvard Hospital

What do you think happened?

“The timeline became the goal, not successful implementation.”

“The successful rooms were the two rooms with Surgeon Champions.”

Why were they successful with two of the surgeons and not

the rest?“Got buy-in and took the time to hardwire the

process effectively.”

“There was commitment from the surgeon champions and time invested by these surgeons

to ensure the process was successful.”

How would you fix it?

“Re-establishing the communication process, then make sure goal is identified properly and correct priority is established, allow adequate

time for acceptance.”

“Educate all physicians, have surgeons understand the importance of surgical checklist in relation to positive patient outcomes intra and

post op.”

The Next Case

The FactsA heart surgeon, an enthusiastic supporter of checklists, decided to try out a checklist he had been working on to use in heart surgery. While it was based on the South

Carolina Surgical Safety Checklist, it had been thoroughly modified to meet the special needs of heart surgery. He

had assembled a group to modify the checklist that consisted of an anesthesiologist, cardiac surgery nurse, another heart surgeon and a perfusionist who runs the

heart lung machine. Everyone who worked on the checklist was very enthusiastic. They group did a table top

simulation in the conference room where they met about once a month while working on their checklist.

The surgeon decided to try out his checklist during a relatively straight forward heart operation on a 70 year old man who needed

a bypass operation. None of the members of the team that had helped to modify the checklist were in the operating room that day.

The nurse, anesthesiologist and perfusionist, who were well acquainted with the Joint Commission time out, had never seen the

checklist before they used it that morning. Because the surgeon wanted to be able to show that the checklist didn’t take too long,

each portion of the checklist was timed that morning. No one had practiced using the checklist before they used it. The case went

well. A survey was given to all of the surgical team members at the end of the procedure asking them their opinions about how the checklist had gone. To the surgeon’s surprise, no one on the

operating team was enthusiastic about using the checklist again. In fact, most of the team felt that the checklist was useless and if they were to have surgery, definitely wouldn’t want a checklist used for

them. They never wanted to use the checklist again.

Give Harvard Hospital Your Feedback

1. If you could give the surgeon just one piece of advice, what would it be?

2. In getting ready to use the checklist for the first time in the operating room, how should people on the operating room team be prepared?

Coaching in the OR Continued

Dabo SwinneySteve Spurrier

• Listening and watching

•Asking questions about what you see or hear

• Trying to improve people’s performance

•Getting people to understand how to help themselves

What is Coaching?A Quick Review

• Telling

• Criticizing

What Coaching Isn’t

Who Makes a Good Coach?

• The best coaches are:– Coachable– Respected by their peers– Understand how to give feedback

Show Me/Teach Me

Watch Me

Give Me Feedback

COACHING

Your Observation• What you saw

– Be specific and clear.

– Avoid telling people why you think they did what they did.

– Do not fill in gaps, ask the person “why they think they did what they did”

– Stay away from telling somebody that they did something bad or that they need improvement.

When You Give Feedback

• Keep it simple

• Keep it focused

• Be respectful

• Be kind

Ask Questions

• “I noticed that . . . can you help me understand?”

• “I saw that you . . . . . can you explain?”

• “I observed that you . . . . What could you have done differently?”

Observation Open Ended Question

"I am curious..."

Questions Should Be Focused and Avoid

Generalizations

“I noticed that the checklist was done in a sloppy and haphazard

way"

Instead, give specific examples.

The Coach as a Motivator

• Emphasize positive things that you observed during the case.

• Tell them that they can be even better and how they can do that.

Remember, you are coaching the team

Think About

• What you saw

• Who you are talking to– Talk to the team– Will coaching be effective for this team

• Is the culture ready for coaching in the OR?• Should I coach in a one-on-one setting?• Am I right the person to coach?

• What is going on in the OR

Let’s Head into the OR

How would you have coached the team to remember the

Heparin?• Write it on a sticky note

• Use memory

• Write it on the white board

• Paging the surgeon right away

• It wasn’t appropriate to coach the team about the heparin at this point in the case.

As the coach, what would your reaction be to the surgeon

saying, “Speak now or forever hold your peace?”

• It was okay for the surgeon to say that. I shouldn’t say anything.

• It is not okay for the surgeon to say that and I should talk to the surgeon about this now.

• It is not okay for the surgeon to say that and I will talk to him alone following this case.

1. How do you think the coach did? Give him a grade:– A = Excellent– B = Above average, but it could have been

improved– C = Average– D = Below Average– F = Poor

2. What would you have done differently, if anything?
