THREAD: Amazing article how McLaren improved their F1 pitstop times by undertaking a deeper understanding of their teams. & how this relates to healthcare.
They used eye tracking tech to identify the pit crew wasnt focused on the car entering the pit 1/

Once issues were identified they implemented several design and training strategies:
1. specific actions for each team member
2. train to focus on wheels
3. painted wheel nuts orange
Net result = record setting speed for pit stops and more wins. Impressive work

This is the detailed approach that we must take in healthcare to get those 1% gains (and in fact, probably opportunity for 5-10%) gains.
We use simulation to help understand issues and subsequently design solutions that work....

And if they don't work, that's fine. At least we've trialed them and we know they don't work before costs incurred for widespread implementation
And, sometimes what we think is the problem isn't...but requires direct observation coupled with clinician feedback.
