Purpose: This study was undertaken to explore the views of paediatric nurses on the use of a safe surgery checklist.
Method: Our study was conducted as a phenomenological research with 15 nurses working in paediatric organ transplantation at Inonu University Turgut Özal Medical Centre. The 'Nurse Information Form' prepared by the researchers was used to collect the data. Descriptive statistics and Collaizi's phenomenological data analysis method were used to evaluate the data.
Results: It was found that 80% of the nurses who participated in our study were female and their mean age was 32.40(4.43) years. As a result of data analysis, it was found that 'Critical step in patient safety and quality care: Safe surgical checklists', 'Patient safety in paediatric surgical procedures: Development of child-specific checklists', 'Difficulties in using safe surgical checklists for children', 'Restructuring safe surgical checklists in paediatric surgical processes: Needs and recommendations' were identified as 4 themes.
Conclusion: In our study, nurses stated that appropriate, detailed and tailored safe surgical checklists should be developed specifically for children. They also reported that such lists would reduce complications, increase patient safety and improve quality of care by addressing the specific needs of paediatric patients.
