Observational Teamwork Assessment for Surgery: Content Validation and Tool Refinement

Abstract

The exemplars of OTAS demonstrated very good content validity. Taken together with recent evidence on the construct validity of the tool, these findings demonstrate that OTAS is psychometrically robust for capturing teamwork in the operating room.
