Talk:The Checklist Manifesto

Problems with "problems"

The "Problems implementing checklist" should be a candidate for deletion; it is irrelevant to the book. 174.47.162.146 (talk) 21:43, 11 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

whereas I think that although it's good to acknowledge that checklists aren't universally acclaimed, the present text is an unsubstantiated list of gripes. --Matt Whyndham (talk) 08:54, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Fourth, gaming is universal. Some surgeons will resist. " : this needs to be justified and explained if it's going to stay. --Matt Whyndham (talk) 08:56, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

related earlier publications

Dr. Gawande wrote about checklists in an Annals of Medicine article in The New Yorker titled The Checklist and published in print on 10 Dec 2007. This article mostly focused on the work of Dr. Peter Pronovost, which started in 2001 while he was a critical care specialist at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

He also made a brief mention of a checklist in the article When Doctors Make Mistakes, published on 24 Jan 1999, and also included in his first book, Complications from 2002. He cited the Northern New England Cardiovascular Disease Study Group, a consortium of 6 hospitals, and based in Dartmouth, developing, among other things, a "pilot's checklist" for all patients coming to the OR. Their work was, in turn, inspired by the methods pioneered by the engineer Jeff Cooper in improving anesthesia safety. --AJim (talk) 05:36, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
