Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to examine the contributory factors in drug errors and their reporting so as to design an enhanced reporting scheme to improve the quality of reporting in an acute hospital trust. The related research questions are: 1. What are the contributory factors in drug errors? 2. How effective is the reporting of drug errors? 3. Can an enhanced reporting scheme, predicated on the analysis of local documentary and interview data, identify the contributory factors in drug errors and improve the quality of their reporting in an acute hospital trust?

Abstract:
Background Venous blood tests constitute an important part in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. However, test results are often viewed as objective values rather than the end result of a complex process. This has clinical importance since most errors arise before the sample reaches the laboratory. Such preanalytical errors affect patient safety and are often due to human mistakes in the collection and handling of the sample. The preanalytical performance of venous blood testing in primary health care, where the majority of the patients contact with care occurs, has not previously been r

Abstract:
Patient safety in healthcare has become a national objective. Healthcare organizations are striving to improve patient safety and have turned to high reliability organizations as those in which to model. One initiative taken on by healthcare is improving patient safety culture--shifting from one of a 'no harm, no foul' to a culture of learning that encourages the reporting of errors, even those in which patient harm does not occur. Lacking from the literature, however, is an understanding of how safety culture impacts outcomes. While there has been some research done in this area, and safety c

Abstract:
Iatrogenic vascular injuries (IVIs) and injuries associated with vascular surgery can cause severe morbidity and death. The aims of this thesis were to study those injuries in the Swedish vascular registry (Swedvasc), the Swedish medical injury insurance where insurance claims are registered, the Population and Cause of death registries, and in patient records, in order to explore preventive strategies. Among 87 IVIs during varicose vein surgery 43 were venous, mostly causing bleeding in the groin. Among 44 arterial injuries, only 1/3 were detected intraoperatively. Accidental arterial strippi

INTRODUCCIÓ: La seguretat del pacient està a l’orde del dia. Part d’aquesta es basa en aconseguir un sistema sanitari el més absent possible d’efectes adversos evitables (EA evitables), que són aquells secundaris a errors assistencials. Una de les metodologies establertes com a eina per promocionar la seguretat dels pacients és a través de l’existència de recollides d’efectes adversos (EA) o incidents i d’errors assistencials. A dia d’avui, manca un registre establert i estandarditzat, a nivell mundial, per a tal efecte. MATERIAL I MÈTODES: El treball de tesis doctoral presentat és dut

RESUMO - A literatura disponível revela que a maioria dos erros relacionados com os exames anatomopatológicos ocorre na fase pré-analítica. Existem alguns estudos que quantificam e caracterizam estes erros mas, não foram encontrados artigos publicados sobre o tema em hospitais portugueses. Foi objetivo deste estudo determinar qual a prevalência e características dos erros pré-analíticos em amostras anatomopatológicas e as suas consequências para a segurança do doente. Analisaram-se 10574 casos de exames anatomopatológicos, de cinco hospitais da região de Lisboa e Vale do Tejo. Os serviços de

Abstract:
Eventos Adversos (EA) são recorrentes nas instituições de saúde e incluem os erros de administração de medicamentos, que podem acontecer nas mais diversas fases do processo dessa administração, da prescrição ao monitoramento do paciente. Atualmente, busca-se pela diminuição de danos desnecessários a um nível mínimo dentro dos limites aceitáveis por meio de ferramentas tecnológicas. Frente ao exposto objetivou-se buscar e analisar as evidências científicas, disponíveis na literatura nacional e internacional, a respeito do uso da tecnologia na segurança dos pacientes hospitalizados, consid

Abstract:
Background: Dispensing medication is a chain of multiple stages, and any error during the dispensing process may cause potential or actual risk for the patient. Few research studies have investigated the nature and contributory factors associated with dispensing errors in hospital pharmacies. Aim: To determine the nature and severity of dispensing errors reported in the hospital pharmacies at King Saud Medical City (KSMC) hospital in Saudi Arabia, and at Luton and Dunstable University Hospital (L&D) NHS Foundation Trust in the UK; and to explore the pharmacy staff perceptions of contributory f

Purpose The purpose of this study is to conduct a survey of the Process of Drug Management in elderly care from when a drug is prescribed to when it is discarded. The purpose also includes to investigate how the various activities are linked to each other and to identify errors for the patient safety. In order to fulfil the purpose, two issues have been formulated: 1. What activities are currently in the Process of Drug Management in elderly care? 2. What deviations can occur in the Process of Drug Management and can be errors for the patient safety? Method In order to fulfil the purpose, a ca
