1. Some terminology Adverse event: injury suffered as a result of
treatment or hospitalisation
Other terms: iatrogenic injury, critical incident, sentinel event, patient safety incident etc
![Page 3: Patient Safety & Medical Error Dr. Nick Sevdalis Clinical Safety Research Unit, Imperial College National Patient Safety Agency.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56649eff5503460f94c14baa/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Incidence: the early years
“…the actual mortality in hospitals…is very much higher than the mortality of the same class of diseases treated outside hospitals”
Florence Nightingale

Incidence: the last 15 years Epidemiology of error Retrospective record reviews
USA (1991): 3.7% of hospital admissions suffered an adverse event
Australia (1999): 16.6% Denmark (2001): 9% New Zealand (2002): 12.9% Canada (2004): 7.5%
![Page 5: Patient Safety & Medical Error Dr. Nick Sevdalis Clinical Safety Research Unit, Imperial College National Patient Safety Agency.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56649eff5503460f94c14baa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Incidence: UK Retrospective record review
Vincent et al 2001: 10.8%-11.7%
Voluntary reporting system National Reporting & Learning System (2005): 4.9%

Consequences: the patient Vincent et al. 1994
“While under anaesthetic they apparently cut a blood vessel in my womb, which led to severe haemorrhage … could only be stopped by giving me a hysterectomy so they say”
“A swelling on my cheek was diagnosed as a malignant tumour and part of my jaw and extensive tissue was removed without my consent. The lab. test showed that it was not a tumour, malignant or benign”
![Page 7: Patient Safety & Medical Error Dr. Nick Sevdalis Clinical Safety Research Unit, Imperial College National Patient Safety Agency.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56649eff5503460f94c14baa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Consequences: the doctor Christensen 1992
“I was really shaken. My whole feeling of self worth and ability was basically profoundly shaken”
“I was appalled and devastated that I had done this to somebody”
![Page 8: Patient Safety & Medical Error Dr. Nick Sevdalis Clinical Safety Research Unit, Imperial College National Patient Safety Agency.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56649eff5503460f94c14baa/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Consequences: the NHS Vincent et al 2001
119 adverse events 999 extra bed days £290,268 extra costs for the Trusts
An Organisation with a Memory 2001 10,000 reported serious adverse drug reactions NHS pays £400 million in litigation Hospital acquired infections cost nearly £1billion
and 15% are regarded as preventable

Conclusion
“The medical establishment has become a major threat to health”
Ivan Illich

2. Definition of error Reason 1992
Failure of achieving the intended outcome in a planned sequence of mental or physical activities not attributable to chance
Error
Slip
correct plan, incorrect execution
Mistake
incorrect plan, correct execution
Violation: deliberate deviation from safe rule

Individual skills: decision-making Aims:
What does the decision-making process look like? Can we assess it reliably?
Methods: Management of patients with symptomatic
gallstone disease Interviews with 10 experienced surgeons Content-analysed by two reviewers

Teamwork Aims: Can we apply a model of surgical teamwork to the
surgical team? Tasks: Equipment, Patient, Communication Behaviours: Communication, Co-operation, Co-ordination, Leadership,
Monitoring/Awareness
Methods 50 general surgery and 50 urology procedures 3 operative stages (pre, intra-, and post-operative)
Task completion rates Behaviour ratings

Operative environment Operative environment:
Physical features Human element: distractions, interruptions
Aims: Can we observe the distractions/interruptions that occur during a typical procedure?
Methods 50 general surgery procedures Distraction types
Door openings, auditory, visual, operational
