STOP? II: Testing of a Toolbox for Structured Communication in the Operating Room — StOP?  

Communication Research Clinical Trial

Official title:
STOP? II Trial: Cluster Randomized Clinical Trial to Test the Implementation of a Toolbox for Structured Communication in the Operating Room

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to test the impact of the StOP?-protocol - an intra-operative communication briefing, on post-operative mortality and important patient outcomes.

Clinical Trial Description

The StOP?-protocol is a communication briefing initiated by the responsible surgeon during a surgical operation. The surgeon informs the team present in the operating room about the current Status of the operation, the Objectives of the next steps and the potential Problems the surgical team may meet; the responsible surgeon encourages the team to voice any question or concern (?). To test the impact of the StOP?-protocol on patient outcomes, the study is designed as a randomized controlled trial. Surgeons will be randomized either (a) in the intervention group and be trained to perform the StOP?-protocol or (b) in the control group and will communicate as they prefer during their operations. Post-operative patient outcomes of the surgeons in the intervention and the control group will be compared to evaluate the effects of the StOP?-protocol. ;
