Surgeons’ mental models of surgical site infection: Insights into adherence with complex prevention bundles
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 May 2021
Abstract
Of 10 surgeons interviewed in a descriptive qualitative study, 6 believed that surgical site infections are inevitable. Bundle adherence was felt to be more likely with strong evidence-based measures developed by surgical leaders. The intrinsic desire to excel was viewed as the main adherence motivator, rather than “pay-for-performance” models.
