What are human factors - and why are they misunderstood? In #BJAEd, Drs. Macallan, Sutcliffe & Lomax explore the concept, the misconceptions that prevent their proper implementation, & what works well to bring effective change. Read Part 1 at bjaed.org/action/showPdf?pii… #humanfactors

Gender differences are of interest and warrant further consideration
Males were more confident than females at managing peri-operative cardiac arrest.
Most were not confident at leading a debrief.

Human Factors (HF) is crucial in anesthesia, but its implementation in healthcare lags behind. Misconceptions hinder progress, affecting staff, patients, and systems. #PatientSafety

A thing of beauty 😻
Whatever you do in life, consider this. This speaks to me, it humbles me and it inspires me. I bet the housekeeper doesn't know the impact this has but so many people commented today. #respect

Found a hedgehog drinking fresh water in the early evening
Maybe it knows even small losses of body water can reduce analysis & decision making
As humans we sometimes forget!
So always emphasise importance of regular hydration in our HF (human or hedgehog factors) teaching!

Every doctor needs this printed and put up next to their flu/first aid supplies.

“Cower”?
You have not looked into patients’ eyes as this horrible disease claims their lives.
How dare you sneer at people for trying to keep themselves & their families safe in a pandemic???
You’re the actual health secretary.

18 hours awake = same cognitive function as being x2 over UK alcohol limit
Taking a short nap of just a few minutes is encouraged by many organisations as can make a big difference to performance - lots published on it
Needs to be actively promoted & embraced by healthcare

Dear @BenefitUK
this policy is stigmatising, unnecessary and without basis in science or properly informed risk analysis.
Restricting services for NHS workers is wrong
I will not be buying any Benefit cosmetics until this error is corrected
Thanks
