Preventing Falls
Captions available
The idea
Patient falls in the operating room are prevented by secure positioning, safety straps and careful handling.
In practice
Improper securing or an unstable patient on the table can lead to a fall, so the safety strap goes on as soon as the patient is on the table.
Where people slip
Never leave an unsecured patient on the table, even for a moment.
