| Core Tip |
Post-anesthesia handover in gastrointestinal surgery should be treated as a high-risk transition and a reliability intervention. Standardized content matters, but durable benefit depends on active receiver engagement, clear accountability, escalation planning, and audit feedback. At the bedside, teams should CLOSE the loop-confirm, loop-back, own the plan, signal rescue triggers, and evaluate understanding-to reduce omissions while preserving workflow discipline. |
