The life saving power of checklists 

When I found your channel I thought it was just another click bait channel, but your videos are actually really nice!

Thanks you guys so much for watching my video. If you liked it, it'd be a great help if you could share it on Reddit because I'm trying to grow my channel and get more feedback. Enjoy the rest of your week and I'll see you guys next week.

Thanks for the disturbing image warning, you just earned a like from that alone.

Dude, this is officially my favorite RU-vid channel. I sincerely wish you the best and more success so you can continue providing such awesome videos!

Man I love these videos. I learn more every episode. Please keep it up! :D

my checklist: 1. subscribe 2. watch every video on this channel

If I ever need a surgical procedure, I'll be sure to ask if the attending doctor uses a checklist. If he doesn't, I'll find another one.

This is great. As a medical student, I am plagued with the stats about medical errors all the time, and I'm very worried about this issue when I have to make medical decisions and do procedures on actual patients. This study eases my mind a lot. I'm a chronic list-maker and I make lists for absolutely anything it is possible to make a list for, mainly because I have ADHD and I would forget anything and everything if I don't write it in a list, calendar, and/or put a reminder. So I know that this will be my strategy for reducing medical error when I am treating patients. (The trick is not forgetting to make the checklist lol)

Excellent report! Checklists work and have MANY applications. Yet, they are very underestimated. Sad, but true. Never underestimate the power of a checklist.

"You're not dead until you're warm and dead." This is why they put so much effort into saving her.

"Which would look something like this" Guys, wtf. xD

Interesting that kahneman described a checklist for the cognitive biases as I have watched a video where Dr. Henry Marsh was describing his initial frustration with checklists and also the realisation that even after he accepted it's implementation and value there were still medical errors he nearly made due to those cognitive biases that would not be stopped by the who surgical checklist. The reduction in error in the ICU is not surprising as there is mandatory 1:1 or 2:1 nursing:patient care there depending on your hospital. But on the wards I've seen nurses inhumanely tied to up to 15 patients. 1:15! That on top of both us and the nurses working superhuman hours. Checklists are a basic requirement for survival in medicine; we don't manage patients (that's for the higher tiers of staff such as attendings to do); we do one task after another the best we can, cross that off and move on to the next.

I use checklists to help me with my homework of with preparing for test, I always forgot to do them, now I write everything I have to do in my note book and I finally get to do everything

I did not expect this video to start in Austria ;-)

you deserve a couple million subscribers. Easily better than Mathew Santoro and similar to scishow

This is why I am more scared of doctors than of terrorists.

Lifted from Atul Gawandes book

This seems like a summary of The Checklist Manifesto for the first three minutes. Not hating, just an observation. (I do like that book)

Ohh I already apply them everywhere, because my short term memory is a total mess :D

So what are the twelve congnitive biases of the checklist that Daniel Kahneman outlined? Great video, I really like your channel.

2:53 who would use a mixed width font for programming, honestly?

Found myself magically unsubbed to you. Life got busy, your channel almost slipped my mind, until I found myself in a difficult situation unable to make a decision. Sought help online on how to best to make decisions and remembered how your channel provided scientifically sound life advice in an interesting and understandable way. This video did prove somewhat useful, maybe I could refer to a cognitive bias checklist to aid decision making. Decision making would be an interesting topic for you to cover, hope you'll consider it! Thanks for the great videos :D Oh yeah, do you have any psychology books or resources you would reccomend?

what we need to do is employ the use of General AI however I guess we need to invent it first

I guess checklists have their own difficulty. Hence using it in daily life non-complex tasks is not efficient.

Wow. I didn't know checklists were useful. I've always thought they'll make us more stupid because we tend not to think. (Like how calculators make some of our mental maths weaker)

I have a night checklist

Checklists saved me professionally. Do you want to know how important checklists are. I am a scientist working in the private sector. Checklists are the difference between employment and homelessness. Checklists also make you work faster, no matter what anyone says.

2 people accidentally missed the like button and hit the dislike. People have bad aim.

Only 4 dislikes.

Can somebody give me a checklist for doing math homework? I want something to "check" whenever I'm stuck. :)

[ ] Stop watching you tube when you are supposed to be sleeping.

0 Dislikes! Yee boi! :) *Someone dislikes the video due to seeing this*

The video quality is good, but the awareness is bad. Nobody's ever going to find this channel on their own. The best way to resolve this is, instead of waiting for your videos to percolate without help, to self publicize. Notice the last time one of your videos was noticed on a major online media outlet, it caused the particular video to accrue nearly three times the average view count for videos on your channel (search with quotes "On using Socratic questioning to win arguments : philosophy").

FUCKING ADVERTISE WHEN YOU LL SHOW SOME DISTURBING CONTENTS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD !!!!!!!!!!!! SOME ARE EATING IN FRONT OF THE INTERNET lol. Good vid as always anyway.

nothing inspiring in this particular video..watching house recently...
