Background: The implementation of WHO safe surgery checklist (SSC) was proposed by the Ministry of Health and Medical Education in the operation rooms of Iranian hospitals in 2011, but was canceled after several years due to some challenges in implementation. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the barriers and facilitators of the effective implementation of the SSC. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in public hospitals of Tabriz city in 2019. The study population consisted of operation room working for staff, and the purposive sampling was used. The research tool was a researcher-made questionnaire designed through literature review and included three parts of demographic variables, barriers, and facilitating factors. Data were analyzed with SPSS-22. Results: The mean of barriers to implementation of the SSC was 3.03 out of 5. The most important barrier to implementing the checklist was the weakness in team working (3.18), while checklist barriers were the least important (2.98). The mean score of facilitating factors was 3.46. Among the facilitators, the highest score was for team working facilitators with a score of 3.47 and the lowest score was for the facilitators associated with the checklist with a score of 3.37. Conclusions: This is one of the first studies that explored the barriers to and facilitators of SSC implementation in Iranian hospitals. We identified weak team working as the most important barrier to implementing the checklist. These results help policymakers and hospital managers to implement the checklist more effectively.
