Background and Aim: Handoff is one of the main processes of health care providers. Paper checklist is commonly used to handoff care from operating room (OR) to intensive care unit (ICU). However, this tool do not guarantee accurate and complete exchange of information during handoff. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of an electronic handoff checklist on improving the quality of care transfer from the OR to ICU.
Materials and methods: The sample of this quasi-experimental study included all situations of patient handoffs from the OR to ICU at Golestan Hospital in Ahvaz city. Accordingly, 84 handoff situations were randomly divided into 2 equal control and intervention groups and participants completed paper or electronic checklists respectively. Quality of care handoff was assessed with Handover Evaluation Scale (HES).
 Results: Mean HES scores in paper-checklist and electronic-checklist groups were 35.38±3.66 and 38.10±3.61 respectively. Handoff scores in two dimensions of quality of information and efficiency in the electronic-checklist group were significantly higher than another group (P= 0.004).
Conclusion: It seems electronic handoff checklist can increase the quality of patient care handoff from OR to ICU.
 
Keywords: Patient Handoff, Checklist, Operating Room, Intensive Care Unit.
