Paper of the Day Winner
Royal College of Nursing International Research Conference
April 2014
Music and Communication in the Operating Theatre Sharon-Marie Weldon, Imperial College London, UK Chair: Margaret Sneddon
Chair's comments: Fantastic presentation that generated loads of discussion. It raised issues of patient safety, lack of respect for colleagues and potential costs and rises of playing loud music in the theatre. This was for me the biggest and most far reaching presentation of the conference that must have further exposure.
