Abstrakt: Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Disruptions in Surgery Index (DiSI) in operating room health care professionals and to determine the frequency of distractions DESIGN: Methodological study.
Methods: The sample consisted of 152 health care professionals. Data were collected online using the DiSI scale. The language validity was ensured, and the data were analyzed with the content validity index, Cronbach α coefficient, and item-total score correlation. Data on distractions of health care workers were given as percentages and averages.
Findings: The mean age of health care professionals was 27.3 ± 6.0 years, and 77.0% of them were operating room nurses. The content validity index of the scale was found to be 0.95. The Cronbach α coefficient of the scale was 0.953 for frequency, 0.967 for contribution to error, and 0.971 for obstruction of goals. The correlation between the item and the total item was positive and significant (p < .001). Tiredness was determined as the most common distraction factor, causing errors and making it difficult to achieve goals.
Conclusions: The DiSI was found to be a valid and reliable tool. The most common distractions, contributing to errors and obstructing to goals, were related to individuals' skills, performance, and personality. Health care professionals perceived the distractions related to the surgical processes and the situations of the team members in the coordination and situational awareness subdimension as the least distracting factor.
