ABSTRACT

Perioperative safety is essential in pediatric cardiac surgery programs and implementation of high reliability practices in them has been recommended to improve outcomes. Such practices include institution of surgical checklist, perfusion verification checklist, transfer protocol of critical patients, and a safe handover checklist to the cardiovascular intensive care unit, along with other strategies in order to achieve success. In our Division we promoted effective communication between medical and paramedical staff in order to establish a safe perioperative attention program, and without being able to attribute outcomes completely to it, we observed an important reduction in mortality since its institution. We describe all the stages related with the implementation of a safe perioperative practices program in the pediatric Cardiac Surgery Project KARDIAS/Instituto Nacional de Pediatría/American British Cowdray in Mexico.
