“Cambio de cultura para promover la seguridad del paciente” sirvió como el tema de la 81 ª Reunión Anual de la Asociación Americana de Cirujanos Neurológicos

Para mejorar los resultados para los pacientes y prevenir errores quirúrgicos evitables, los neurocirujanos tienen que cambiar la cultura que existe actualmente en la sala de operaciones para que las preocupaciones de seguridad sean de la máxima importancia y que cada miembro del equipo tenga un sentido personal de la responsabilidad. Hacer esto implica la implementación y la aplicación constante de las estrategias basadas en sistemas que garanticen un nivel adecuado de garantías, la mejora de la comunicación con todos los miembros del equipo de atención y el desmantelamiento de los gradientes de autoridad, y el mantenimiento de una fuerza de trabajo bien entrenada y bien descansada ¹⁾.
