The medical team reviewed preoperative procedures and decided to examine written protocols to determine if any additional steps were needed. A meeting of the surgical team was scheduled for May 26th to discuss suggested changes to the preoperative checklist. The memo lists several items that should be reviewed to determine where they fit within an updated preoperative surgical checklist, including signed forms, completed tests, noted allergies and reviews by surgical and anesthesia staff. The team hopes to create one of the most thorough preoperative checklists in the region.
