Keep it to one page per task, written as numbered steps with a photograph where a mistake is likely. Review it with the people who do the work, then pin it where the work happens.
In practice
Every case is different, so treat this as a starting point and adapt it to your implant system, your equipment and your team. If something here does not match what you see in your own workflow, ask Y Medic before the case, not during it.
Checklist
- Confirm the records are complete before design starts.
- Approve the plan on screen; ask for changes in writing.
- Try the guide on the model before the day of surgery.
