ABSTRACT
The emergency manuals based on cognitive aids are an essential component within the operating room for timely crisis management, with the advantage of reducing errors due to omission. The purpose of this writing was to resume the current world experience with them and compare it with the ABC Medical Center. The data obtained from the survey were converted into percentages and used to summarize the categorical variables. The results showed that most doctors were aware of this tool in the operating room and more than a half actually used it in critical situations. The most described situations were: bronchospasm, anaphylactic shock and suspicion of malignant hyperthermia.
