Opis

What are we actually doing in the operating room? The operating room is a system with one goal-to treat patients. In the end, we all want one thing: We want to heal patients and to give them the best and safest possible care. We want to make sure that they are better off after the surgery compared with how they were before. This book deals with the most important dilemmas we face in the operating room: How do we outperform ourselves without going crazy? How do we deal with our own mind? How do we optimize our situational awareness? How do we deal with protocols and checklists? How do we build a team that can move mountains? No Room for Shaky Hands offers wisdom and insights that will help anyone who is part of an operating room team to perform better and provide superior care for their patients. From the foibles of patients to the risks of power failures, the author shows you how to prepare for the worst and expect the very best from yourself and your team. In a series of easy to read chapters you'll learn how to take care of yourself, optimize your team, plan ahead, use checklists, manage stress, free your mind from doubt, acquire new confidence, and focus on the one thing that you know is important: improving your patients' quality of life. In this book you'll discover how art and science come together in the operating room to create a vibrant microcosm in which creativity, quality, and humanity all come together to produce great results. It's all about providing the best possible care, and with No Room for Shaky Hands you and your team can change your patients' lives for the better
