Area of Science:

  • Orthopaedic Surgery
  • Medical Communication
  • Patient Safety

Background:

  • Effective communication is vital for safe, high-quality orthopaedic care.
  • Orthopaedic surgeons often receive lower ratings for communication skills compared to other specialties.
  • This review explores communication's role and strategies to improve interactions in orthopaedics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the role of communication in orthopaedic settings.
  • To explore structured strategies for enhancing provider-patient interaction and engagement.
  • To identify communication frameworks that improve patient outcomes and safety.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive narrative review of literature from PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar.
  • Analysis of patient-provider interactions, team communication (intraoperative/perioperative), and inter-staff communication.
  • Emphasis on structured communication frameworks and their efficacy.

Main Results:

  • Communication failures contribute to preventable adverse events (e.g., wrong-site surgery, retained instruments).
  • Poor communication leads to patient dissatisfaction, even after successful procedures.
  • Effective outpatient communication involves active listening, empathy, and shared decision-making.
  • Structured tools like SBAR, CUS, and TeamSTEPPS improve team communication and reduce errors.

Conclusions:

  • Structured, patient-centered communication enhances clinical outcomes and patient safety in orthopaedics.
  • Communication is a critical clinical competency requiring regular training.
  • Focusing on communication is particularly important in high-risk surgical environments.
