So crazy reading this and thinking how wrong some of the theories then were. Makes me wonder what todays theories are that people will look back and scoff. Sid

  I work in surgical simulation training tech. IMO biggest blind spots today are no longer in the medical knowledge or treatment technique itself, but in information and human resource training and organization. We spend millions on sophisticated surgical robots, we have the worlds most advanced medicines, crazy tools, but patients still get hurt as simple mistakes occur when one person doesn’t succeed in conveying some critical piece of information to another person. I am baffled as to how it is possible that the software developers in our office can handle Jira level complexity with the code base, while surgeons continue to use pen and paper to organize their bizarre schedules.

    Pen and paper is said to be better for retention right?

      For an individual, sure. I’m talking about the hospital as an information system.
