In modern surgery, patient safety, risk management, and surgical checklists are vital components of preventing adverse events and enhancing patient outcomes. The implementation of comprehensive surgical checklists, such as the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Surgical Safety Checklist, has been shown to significantly reduce complications, mortality, and infections. These checklists promote standardized protocols for patient identification, anesthesia safety, and infection control practices. Risk management strategies further incorporate preoperative assessments, intraoperative monitoring, and postoperative care guidelines to reduce variability in outcomes. By fostering a culture of safety and accountability, healthcare teams can ensure that every step of the surgical process is executed with precision and focus, minimizing risks and improving overall patient care.
