A surgical check list that could save your life

[NormanH]

This article in the Guardian  shows that deaths could be cut by up to 40% by using

THIS LIST to reduce human error.

Strangely there appears to be "significant resistance" to the idea from surgeons, About half

said it made sense, 30% were unenthusiastic but complied and 20% said

they thought it was a waste of time. Some refused to use it.
