Abstract

Objective To evaluate the impact of perioperative safety culture education in anesthesiology on standardized residency trainees in obstetrics and gynecology.Methods In December 2024, the Department of Anesthesiology at Guangzhou Medical University Affiliated Third Hospital conducted a cross-sectional study using random sampling. A validated questionnaire adapted from the patient safety culture scale was administered via questionnaire star platform to 104 obstetrics-gynecology resident trainees who had completed or were currently undertaking anesthesia rotations. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis.Results Among the questionnaires, 91 valid responses were obtained. The full participation rate in safety culture education reached 95.6% (87/91). Key outcomes demonstrated that 98.9% (90/91) found the education highly beneficial personally, while 96.7% (88/91) reported enhanced anesthesia risk awareness. Trainees showed significant improvements in patient communication[ 97.8% (89/91) ], postoperative monitoring focus[94.5% (86/91)], and attention to clinical details[98.9% (90/91) ]. Additionally, 92.3% (84/91) observed accelerated patient recovery, 96.7% (88/91) noted better interdisciplinary collaboration with anesthesiologists, and 98.9% (90/91) developed stronger professional responsibility. Crucially, 96.7% (88/91) expressed increased willingness to participate in quality control activities with enhanced professional identity.Conclusions Perioperative safety culture education effectively elevates safety awareness, clinical competencies, teamwork capabilities, and professionalism among obstetrics-gynecology resident trainees, ultimately improving healthcare quality.
