Summary: | Incorrect assessment of the performance shaping factors (PSFs), especially in health care systems, may lead to irreversible consequences such as death. The current study aimed to adapt PSFs taxonomy given in standardized plant analysis risk human reliability analysis (SPAR‐H) technique to surgical context. PSFs taxonomy of the SPAR‐H technique was revised, and more contextspecific definitions to surgical context were suggested. Step‐wise weight assessment ratio analysis (SWARA) and eleven‐digit numerical scale were used for quantification of the weight and negative influence rate of the PSFs during surgical processes, respectively. Nine PSFs were proposed following the SPAR‐H taxonomy. The order of the importance of the PSFs was quietly conflicting in terms of weight and negative influence rate. From the perspective of experts, fatigue and threat stress were assessed as the most important PSFs in terms of both weight and negative influence rate. Current study has offered a domain‐based understanding of the PSFs, particularly in the surgical context. Results of this study could be used to evaluate human error behaviors during the performance of tasks in the operating room. Moreover, these results could be used for improving patient safety programs in health care systems. |
