TORRES, B. et al. Surgical safety and filling-in of the records about intraoperative information in Spain: a comparative analysis of two recording instruments. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.41, pp.183-194. ISSN 1695-6141.

The objective of this study is to describe and compare the percentages of non-filling-in two recording instruments: Current sheet and surgical checklist in the same surgical setting for a sample of patients with similar characteristics. Methods: Descriptive study carried out with the intraoperative records of 3024 patients from Orthopedic Surgery and 1732 patients who were operated in 2009 with current sheet model completed at the end of the surgery and 1292 patients in 2010 with surgical checklist as recording model, completed during the intervention in three stages. Descriptive characteristics (mean, standard deviation, minimum and maximum) were calculated from the overall percentage of non-completion in both records, as well as the non-filling-in percentage (and confidence interval at 95%) of each item of the records studied. Results: A higher overall - and also individual, in general- percentage of filling-in is observed in the current sheet than in the surgical checklist. Conclusions: In general terms, the intraoperative recording with the highest percentage of being filled-in has been the circulating sheet and it has been observed the necessity to implement strategies to improve the level of filling-in due to its relationship with surgical clinical safety.
