Tune Out or Time Out: Our Last Chance to Get Surgery Right

“Everyone please stop all activity for the time out.” How many times do you hear this sentence every single day? Do you actually stop? Do you actively participate in the time out? On this week’s episode of the First Case podcast, we sat down with OR Circulator Brenna Page, MSN, RN, CNOR, CNAMB to discuss this fundamental of patient safety in the OR. The time out is our last chance to confirm that everything we are doing for our patient is what we’re supposed to be doing. Join us as we discuss what a proper timeout should look like, our experiences with the timeout process, and find out the key element needed for every successful timeout.   Love our show?
