The State of Global Health Care
Each year 1 million people
die from complications
following major surgery Nearly 1 in 10 patients is harmed as a result
of a medical error Estimated that 50% of complications and
deaths could be avoided if certain basic standards of care were followed

Adverse Events in Healthcare
– The problem of adverse events in health care is serious– 10% of hospital patients suffer an adverse event each
year (UK, New Zealand, Canada and Europe)
– 16.6% of hospital patients suffer an adverse event (Australian study)
– 98,000 hospital deaths every year through error (USA) – 1.4 million hospital patients worldwide acquire HAI (at any
given time)
– UK: 100,000 cases of HAI lead to 5,000 deaths a year– USA: 1 out of every 135 hospital patients acquires HAI

– The economic impact is important:– UK: costs as high as US $6 billion a year– USA: about US $29 billion a year
– The problem of adverse events in health care is even more serious in developing countries.
– Less data is available

changes

How Essentials & Accreditation Differ
– Essentials is different from JCI accreditation, which recognizes hospitals meeting the highest standards for care
– Essentials is a resource for developing organizations working on more fundamental elements of quality and safety
– No formal recognition – such as accreditation or certification -- given to hospitals using the Essentials framework
