RT Book, Section A1 Hull, Louise A1 Sevdalis, Nick A2 Cochran, Amalia A2 Braga, Ruth SR Print(0) ID 1132432502 T1 Teamwork and Communication in the Operating Room T2 Introduction to the Operating Room YR 2016 FD 2016 PB McGraw-Hill Education PP New York, NY SN 9781259587283 LK accesssurgery.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1132432502 RD 2024/04/24 AB There is something captivating about witnessing an operating room (OR) team perform as a “team” to accomplish what is, to many people, the extraordinary: invasive procedures to the human body that cure disease (Figure 5.1). In contrast, there is an amazing sense of exasperation witnessing a team work as disconnected (and sometimes competing) individuals to try and accomplish what only a team can accomplish. If you haven’t done so already, you will experience both the captivation and exasperation of OR teamwork; hopefully more of the former, but prepare yourself for the latter.
