  • Identification of effective communication techniques.

    • Main Results:

    • Operating room communication directly impacts efficiency and reduces patient injury.
    • Stress, cultural/language barriers, education disparities, and stereotyping hinder effective communication.
    • Positive communication strategies include rapport-building, support, information sharing, and problem-solving.

    Conclusions:

    • Implementing positive communication techniques is crucial for optimal operating room function.
    • Overcoming communication barriers enhances team support and performance under stress.
    • Clear, supportive communication is fundamental to patient safety and surgical team success.
