Identifying intraoperative events in a simulated laparotomy video: a multinational study of inattentional blindness among anesthesiologists

Medical errors may be occasionally explained by inattentional blindness (IB), i.e., failing to notice an event/object that is in plain sight. We aimed to determine whether age/experience, restfulness/fatigue, ...
