hospitals around the world in an effort to reduce medical errors*
The intervention required surgeons and nurses to complete a
one-page checklist of tasks before beginning a surgery, such as
introducing themselves to one another and correctly timing the
application of antiseptics
* Social-Psychological Interventions in Education: They’re not magic. Yeager and Walton 2011
An evaluation of this simple intervention found that it reduced
surgical complications by 36% and deaths by 47%
Many people assumed that surgeons were already doing the set
of practices included in the checklist”

- and ‘doing’ is about evolution not revolution.
