Of the more than 230 million patients who undergo surgery each year, 7 million suffer a disabling complication, and one million die (Weiser 2008). These numbers are substantial, and through the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist, the issues surrounding safe surgery are at last receiving attention on the international stage.
每年接受手术的患者超过2.3亿，其中700万出现致残性并发症，100万死亡（韦泽，2008年）。这些数字相当可观，通过世界卫生组织手术安全核对表，安全手术相关问题终于在国际舞台上受到关注。
