Abstract

Perfusionists involved in cardiac surgery play an important role both in the management of the heart-lung machine and in the preparation and management of other extracorporeal circulatory equipment. Various checklists can be used in the management and preparation of this equipment. These lists may vary in each heart centers. Although this situation eliminates the existence of a standardised perfusion checklist, it may sometimes cause checklist fatigue in perfusionists and may cause perfusionists to mark the tasks listed in the checklist without paying direct attention.
In conclusion, we think that standardisation of the perfusion checklist will create an effective communication environment and safety culture; it will also ensure the elimination of adverse situations as in many clinical activities. Furthermore, standardisation will eliminate the checklist fatigue of perfusionists and lead to better clinical outcomes.

Perfüzyon kontrol listesi kontrolü - klinik perfüzyon uygulamasını nasıl etkiler?

Abstract

Kalp cerrahisinde yer alan perfüzyonistler, hem kalp-akciğer makinesinin yönetiminde hemde diğer ekstrakorporeal dolaşım ekipmanlarının hazırlanması ve yönetiminde önemli rol oynamaktadırlar. Bu ekipmanların yönetiminde ve hazırlanmasında çeşitli kontrol listeleri kullanılabilmektedir. Bu listeler, her kalp merkezinde farklılık gösterebilmektedir. Bu durum standartlaşmış bir perfüzyon kontrol listesi varlığını ortadan kaldırmakla beraber, bazen perfüzyonistlerde kontrol listesi yorgunluğunu ortaya çıkarabilmekte ve perfüzyonistlerin kontrol listesinde listelenen görevleri, doğrudan dikkat etmeden işaretlemesine neden olabilmektedir.
Sonuç olarak, perfüzyon kontrol listesinin standartlaştırılmasının, etkili iletişim ortamını ve güvenlik kültürünü yaratacağını; ayrıca birçok klinik faaliyette olduğu gibi olumsuz durumların ortadan kaldırılmasını sağlayacağını da düşünmekteyiz. Ayrıca standardizasyon, perfüzyonistlerin kontrol listesi yorgunluğunu ortadan kaldıracak ve daha iyi klinik sonuçların ortaya çıkmasını sağlayacaktır.
