With so many problems from botched surgeries you would think a patient would be able to request this.
In: Technology
1. It would increase costs, you now need a person and multiple cameras to record whats going on.
2. The average person would have no idea what they are even looking at in a video recording of a surgery and would make accusations of malpractice based on things they think are “wrong”.
3. It puts additional pressure on the surgeons/staff to do things that look good on video instead of actually being good for surgery. (Lets make a extra big long incision so the camera can see inside!)
4. A number of surgeries are emergencies, so there isn’t time to setup un-needed equipment.
