Objective: To identify the safe surgery checklist applicability in hospital surgery centers. Method: This is a quantitative research carried out at
national level, after approval by the Research Ethics Committee of Universidade Federal de Alagoas. The research was performed using e-mail, and included
nurses who were members of Associação Brasileira de Enfermeiros de Centro Cirúrgico, Recuperação Anestésica e Centro de Material e Esterilização
(SOBECC) and worked in surgery centers. Data analysis was performed by means of the chi-square test. Results: All the participants (100%) were aware of
the checklist. Of the 113 research participants who used the checklist, 89 (78.76%) participants observed changes in the surgical team’s interpersonal communication,
and 94 (83.18%) participants confirmed that after the checklist implementation, there were improvements in professional assistance performance.
The main advantages of the checklist implementation were rapid and easy completion and service organization. Team’s disengagement was the main difficulty
reported by the research subjects. Conclusion: The safe surgery checklist application contributes to the quality of care provided to surgical patients.
