About this study

Before the study, the investigators selected 15 preventive measures to avoid medication errors during anesthesia. These measures were learned to the entire anesthesia team (nurse, resident and anesthesiologist) during conventional meetings. An initial evaluation of the application of these measures will be carried out before the introduction of e-learning. This assessment will be conducted by nurses without the knowledge of the anesthetic team evaluated. After this initial evaluation, e-learning will be broadcast on the hospital intranet. Then a second evaluation of the application of the preventive measures will be carried out 6 month and 1 year after the introduction of e-learning.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Evaluation of the application of each of the 15 preventive measureaccording to various clinical parameters

    Time frame: 1 day

    Evaluation of the application of each of the 15 preventive measures according to the clinical parameters of the patients followed (age of the patient, physical state of the ASA, type of surgery, type of anesthesia, period of the day or of the week, surgery of Emergency or elective.)emergency or elective surgery. In each completed questionnaire, these clinical parameters are noted.)
