Abstract:

In the article the author investigates the qualification signs of actions (inaction) of doctors (medical staff), the consequence of which is a medical error. Their content and influence at the civil law relations that arise between the doctor and the patient are established. The author emphasizes the development of a correct, well-thought-out and unified position about the legal qualification of erroneous actions of doctors (medical staff). Also in the article it is noted that possible defects of medical care are: lack of a positive result, accident, medical error, where medical error is the basis for bringing to civil liability for doctors (medical workers). It is noted that the characteristic signs of such an error are harm to the patient`s health or his death and the presence of both intentional guilt and negligence and wrongful acts (inaction) of doctors (medical workers). The analysis and classification of the causes (factors) of occurrence and types of medical error is carried out. The subjective and objective reasons influencing actions (inaction of doctors, medical workers are defined). It is said that the objective reasons the doctor, the medical worker cannot predict and which exclude their responsibility. It is stated that actions under the influence of objective reasons should be considered as types of accident (or incident). Subjective causes (factors) are errors made by doctors (health professionals) that unreasonably deviate from established medical standards, act carelessly, confidently or allow unreasonable risks in the absence of experience or knowledge. The article analyses the classification of medical errors by the causes, in particular: diagnostic errors; medical and tactical errors; technical errors; organizational errors and deontological errors. A legal assessment of a medical error as one of the possible grounds for civil liability is provided. It is substantiated that the responsibility of a doctor, medical staff depends on the presence of guilt in his actions and the qualification of the negative result of medical care. The article also emphasizes that doctors (medical workers) are not responsible for a medical error, but for the damage caused to the patient as a result of this error. Scientifically substantiated proposals and recommendations for improving the civil legislation of Ukraine in the field of medicine are formulated.

Abstract:

Abstract Following the 2000 report of the Institute of Medicine, To Err Is Human, which documented that as many as 98,000 people in this country die of medical errors every year, medical, hospital, and governmental agencies began to consider changes in hospital systems. The report had found that errors were much more likely to result from systemic problems than from inept health care providers. Progress in reinventing hospital systems has been very slow, although some institutions have made great gains. “Medical errors” may be of several types. Some lead to malpractice claims, many do not. Many people who have been severely injured by errors never file claims. Making a medical mistake is not necessarily “malpractice.” There are six elements a patient must prove in order to win a malpractice case: a physician-patient relationship must exist, the care provider must owe the patient a duty of care, evidence (usually expert testimony) must be presented that there was a failure in some part of the duty of care, there must proof that the lack of care was the proximate cause of harm, and proof of evidence that harm occurred. The patient must also prove his or her assessment of damages. Solutions to the problem of patient injuries are suggested.

Abstract:

Background. Honest and timely reporting of medical errors is the professional and ethical duty of any physician as it can help the patients and their families to understand the condition and enable the practitioners to prevent the consequences of the error. This study aims to investigate the viewpoints of medical interns regarding medical error disclosure in educational hospitals in Shiraz, Iran. Methods. A researcher-made questionnaire was used for data collection. The survey consisted of questions about the medical error disclosure, the willingness to disclose an error, the interns’ experiences and intentions of reporting the medical error, and two scenarios to assess the students’ response to a medical error. Results. Medical interns believed that a medical error must be reported for the sake of conscience and commitment and prevention of further consequences. The most important cause of not reporting an error was found to be inappropriate communication skills among the students. The results indicated that the willingness to disclose the hypothetical error among females was more than males (R < 0.005), but in practice, there was no difference between males and females (R > 0.005). The willingness to disclose minor and major hypothetical errors had a positive correlation ( P < 0.001 , R = 0.848). Conclusion. More ethical training and education of communication skills would be helpful to persuade physicians to disclose medical errors.

Abstract:

The article gives a general classification of medical errors. There are given arguments in favor the replacement of a «medical error» for an «innocent mistake». It is proved expedient to replace “negligence, frivolity” to “a mistake due to negligence and frivolity”. Common features and criteria for distinguishing both types of mistakes are written. There is given an example of thinking errors due to stereotype and its analysis.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT The critical problem of medical errors and the associated costs has recently been increasingly in the focus of attention of a number of world renowned experts. In the present article we review in detail and analyse the economic aspects of this problem. A methodology to assess the cost of medical errors and an algorithm for their prevention are presented. The cost of a medical error and the expenses required to avoid and prevent it are compared using graphical analysis of the prevention cost curve and the medical error compensation damages cost curve.

Abstract:

BackgroundMedical student error reporting can potentially be increased through patient safety education, culture change and by teaching students how to report errors. There is scant literature on what kinds of errors students see during clinical rotations. The authors developed an intervention to better understand what kinds of errors students see and to train them to identify and report errors.MethodsA safety curriculum was delivered during the Medicine clerkship for the academic year 2015–2016. Prior to the workshop, students completed a preintervention survey to determine whether they had reported a clinical error. Subsequently, they participated in an educational workshop. Facilitated discussions about conditions contributing to errors, types of errors, prevention of errors and importance of reporting followed. Students were required to submit a simulated error report about an error they personally observed. An end-of-year survey was sent to students who participated in the curriculum to determine clinical error reporting frequency.ResultsStudents submitted 282 reports. Near miss errors were seen in 64% and adverse events in 36%. National Quality Forum serious events were reported in 14%, including one death. Recommendations to prevent similar events were weak (62%). Students correctly categorised 93% near miss, 88% adverse events, 67% diagnostic, 81% treatment and 78% preventative errors. On the preintervention survey, 8.5% stated they submitted an error report to their clinical site. On the end-of-year survey, 18% confirmed submitting a formal error report.ConclusionTraining students to recognise and report errors can be successfully integrated into a clinical clerkship and impact clinical error reporting.

This publication is a continuation of the article published in the 4th issue of the journal Russian family doctor for 2020 Heuristics, language and medical errors, which described the ways of making medical decisions that can lead to errors in patient management tactics, in particular affect of heuristics / visceral bias, attribution error, frame of reference, availability bias, one-word-one-meaning-fallacy. This article discusses additional sources of diagnostic error, including diagnosis momentum, confirmation bias, representativeness, and premature closure also the conflict that arises from diagnostic uncertainty is discussed. All errors in the tactics and the diagnostic process are illustrated by clinical cases from the personal practice of the author of the article.

Abstract:

Studying and improving the theory of errors of doctors has always been important, and today it has become especially relevant.The article lists the main provisions of the advanced version of the theory of errors of doctors. The main content of the articleis devoted to four important aspects of the problem of physician errors. The article states the main contradiction of the problemof errors in medicine. The structure of general objective and subjective causes of medical errors is shown. The main optionsfor doctors to experience errors that complicate doctors’ mutual understanding in this problem are formulated. For the fi rsttime, the reasons for the denial of errors by doctors are summarized. These aspects and conclusions on them are the result ofan analysis of publications on the problem of errors in medicine, repeated discussions of the problem on professional medicalsites. The content of these aspects was based on its own material on error analysis and observation from practice. The aboveaspects and their conclusions need not so much to be confi rmed by special studies, but rather to refl ect on their role and placein the problem of errors. The general objective and subjective reasons for the occurrence of medical errors are shown inconnection with their possible "guilt". Lack of experience is presented as the most common cause of medical errors. Variousoption for doctors to experience errors are presented as a reason that makes it diffi cult for doctors to understand this problem.
