ICU attending handoff practices: results from a national survey of academic intensivists.

Satisfaction with handoff procedures was suboptimal, and a significant proportion of respondents could recall an adverse event related to handoffs. This suggests that despite extensive work in this area, handoffs remain a persistent safety vulnerability.
