<![CDATA[The Surgical Safety Checklist (SSC) is a patient safety instrument used to enhance communication, coordination, and procedural consistency in surgical care. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between compliance with SSC implementation and the following factors: individual characteristics, human resources and work environment, organizational and management support, facilities and infrastructure, and team leadership. The study was conducted in the Operating Room of Ibnu Sina YW-UMI Hospital, Makassar. An analytical study design with a cross-sectional approach was employed, involving 30 respondents—comprising surgeons, anesthesiologists, and operating room nurses—selected via stratified random sampling. Data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires and direct observation. Bivariate analysis was performed using Fisher’s Exact Test. Significant relationships were found between SSC implementation compliance and individual factors (p=0.006), human resources and work environment (p=0.029), organizational and management support (p=0.007), facilities and infrastructure (p=0.010), and team leadership (p=0.031). The proportions of compliance within the groups meeting the respective criteria were 88.0%, 63.2%, 56.3%, 58.8%, and 84.6%, respectively. In conclusion, all five factors were significantly associated with compliance in SSC implementation. However, inconsistent relationship patterns observed for some factors require cautious interpretation and further investigation.]]>
