Various factors, such as technical and non-technical skills or scheduling, can impact perioperative safety. This systematic review, which included 76 studies, concluded that use of specialized, stable operating room teams and use of specialty-dedicated operating rooms can lead to improved patient outcomes. The authors also note that disruptions, communication failures, and resident involvement can increase the risk of adverse outcomes.
