Descriptive synthesis of patient safety indicators across included studies, including the within-team randomized checklist trial by Arriaga et al. (2013) summarised in Table 4 (6% missed with checklist vs. 23% without). The review reports "the teams with checklists lacked as few as 6% of essential actions compared to 23% in unsupported conditions."

"Measures of patient safety indicators increased, and the teams with checklists lacked as few as 6% of essential actions compared to 23% in unsupported conditions."
