Beschreibung
Arbeitsabläufe werden immer komplexer, und Fehler damit immer häufiger. In seinem vielbeachteten Buch plädiert Gawande für den Einsatz von Checklisten, so wie Piloten sie schon lange nutzen, um Fehler zu vermeiden und die Sicherheit aller zu erhöhen. Could the straightforward checklists used by airline pilots also help save lives in the operating room? Dr. Atul Gawande's book examines how lists can reduce risk in the medical field and beyond. A New York Times bestseller.
