Summary

In this study, we designed and evaluated a team timeout checklist (TTOC) which aimed at improving team communication and information exchange before skin incision. The WHO surgical safety checklist was used as a basis with the following changes: we clarified the wording of specific items (e.g., surgical site), we clarified checks by denoting separate items involved for each check, and we denoted circulating nurses as responsible for checklist readout and adherence.
