“…This is defined by Gillespie et al 19 as 'an organisational wide commitment to patient safety'. Adopting an organisational safety culture involves using strategies to facilitate effective leadership, communication and interdisciplinary collaboration, and creating a shared mental model for improving patient outcomes 19,20 . One such strategy that has been recommended for improving how teams work together in the health care industry is the multidisciplinary team huddle.…”

To gain greater insight into how nurses engage with the multidisciplinary team during the surgical safety checklist process. Participants and settingParticipants were a purposeful sample of eight operating room nurses. The study was conducted in the operating room department of a major tertiary teaching hospital in South Australia. MethodsPhase 1 employed participant observations while phase 2 employed semistructured interviews. FindingsParticipants supported the use of the surgical safety checklist and valued its role to enhance patient safety. Multidisciplinary team culture played a significant role in how the checklist was conducted and heavily influenced the level of nurse participation in the process. Observations indicated poor compliance with the nursing review section of the checklist. ConclusionsMultidisciplinary team engagement is important for effective communication during the process of utilising the surgical safety checklist to promote safe outcomes for patients. Nurses are more likely to actively participate in the checklist process if they feel their role is valued by other team members. The nurse-specific area of the checklist is an area for improvement as this tends to be overlooked and considered less important than other checklist items. Modifications in timing the checklist and nurse training may be beneficial to address non-compliance with the nurse area of the checklist.

“…The lack of an adequate SMM in teams have been often been related to the occurrence of team errors [9,17]. It is suggested that SSM play a major role in the effectiveness, efficiency of the group decision process and performance in a variety of domains, e.g., aviation decision making and medical team decision making and command and control [3,12,14,19,25,[37][38]. Among others the adequacy of SSM have been related to patent safety in the operation room, e.g., open heart operation and tracheal intubation [15,23].…”

This paper describes a network model for mental processes making use of shared mental models (SMM) of team performance. The paper illustrates the value of adequate SMM's for safe and efficient team performance. The addressed application context is that of a medical team performing a tracheal intubation executed by a nurse and a medical specialist. Simulations of successful and unsuccessful team performance have been performed, some of which are presented. The paper discusses potential further elaborations for future research as well as implications for other domains of team performance.

“…The concept of a shared mental model (SMM) has recently received increased attention in medical team performance literature as well as in other domains. SMM's are often brought in relation to the quality of team performance and safety (Burthscher et al 2011;Burtscher and Manser 2012;DeChurch and Mesmer-Magnus 2010;Wilson 2019;Todd 2018;Higgs et al 2018;Nini 2019;Seo et al 2021). A team has a shared mental model when relevant knowledge structures concerning how reality works or should work are held by all team members and when there is sufficient alignment in the internal representations of these knowledge structures (Fisschoff and Johnson 1997;Jones and Roelofsma 2000;Mathieu et al 2000).…”
