Abstract
Anecdote indicates anaesthesiologists in the operating room are not invariably at the head of the operating table beside their equipment. The validity of this was investigated by a nationally distributed questionnaire. The results support the anecdotal evidence. The behaviour can be justified so supports a recommendation for appropriate visibility of information displays. Whether such action would improve patient safety is debatable.
