Abstract
This article advocates for an open communication culture in the perfusion and cardiothoracic community to enhance patient safety during surgery. All team members, including nurses, anesthesiologists, and perfusionists, should actively contribute their insights. Empowering perfusionists to voice concerns without fear of repercussions is crucial. Involvement in debriefs, root cause analyses and data management systems aids continuous improvement. A robust speak-up culture prevents unsafe practices and elevates perfusion care standards, leading to better patient outcomes.
