About This Project

There are almost 500,000 open-heart surgeries performed ayear. Of these surgeries almost 100,000 lives are lost due to preventable error. Knowing where the pitfalls of communication, coordination and cooperation exist within the operating room we will be able to offer recommendations to hospitals and surgical teams to decrease interruptions and increase efficiency.
