        I wonder if dentists use checklists? Last week I sat in a dental chair and they got me all set up for a root canal. Turns out that was for the "other Jim"...

        Hi Jim hope you don’t mind me commenting. You raise a very important point. In the UK we have had many cases like yours. As far as I’m aware we don’t have an “official list” but we definitely should

        While the checklist is very helpful, the healthcare industry somehow came to a conclusion that checklist and handwashing is the solution to everything!

        Discussed the SS Checklist (and your book) at a World Health Assembly side event last night. The surprising thing for me was the poor initial uptake of the checklist despite the 50% decrease in deaths. A lot to do to change practitioner mindsets!

        I just listened to an interview with Daniel Pink, and I was delighted to hear him laud the value of the surgery checklist. He observed a surgical team address the attention/reasoning lag that comes with exhaustion by stepping back and running the list. So important.

        I knew Dr. Gawande's idea had been successfully implemented when I asked a staffer, prior to my own surgery, if the hospital used the WHO safe surgery checklist. He said, "No, we use our own checklist." Same checklist, but it was *theirs*!
