Abstract
The anaesthetists interviewed in this study accepted performance review and the role of MSF in it. Anaesthetists thought anonymity an important feature of MSF, and viewed the process as an opportunity for self-improvement. To the extent that MSF was viewed by the anaesthetists as surveillance by management, this was seen as being largely benign. Rather a view of the acceptance of self-responsibility for using the information gathered to improve their own performance was held by the majority of those interviewed. While broad sampling of sources within and outside anaesthesia was desired, most value was placed on feedback from both nurses and trainees within anaesthesia. The value of feedback from surgeons was contentious, and this may reflect underlying issues with this important relationship that are yet to be explored.
