Clin Obstet Gynecol. 2019 Sep;62(3):621-626. doi: 10.1097/GRF.0000000000000463.

Abstract

Patient safety bundles and checklists have been shown to improve outcomes in medicine, surgery, and obstetrics. Until recently, there has been less study into their use in the gynecology setting. Here, we review the available evidence and examples of successful checklist and bundle implementation in gynecology and encourage more robust implementation and standardization in our field going forward.
