Adverse events are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries as many as one in 10 patients is harmed while receiving hospital care. 1

2 Because of the complex nature of health care, there is no single reason why things go wrong. Human beings make mistakes because the systems, tasks and processes they work in are poorly designed. Dr Lucian Leape, testifying to the US President s Commission on Consumer Protection and Quality in Health Human systems ergonomics 2

3 urged WHO and Member States to pay the closest possible attention to the problem of patient safety. Lessons to learn Industries with a perceived higher risk such as aviation and nuclear plants have a much better safety record than health care. PATIENT CENTRED CARE REQUIRES: New knowledge & skills required Partnerships with patients & carers Teamwork Risk management/communication Data collection Adverse events Professional responsibility Professional accountability Competent care providers Deliver patient centred care Active member of multidisciplinary teams Report and learn from errors Apply evidenced-based health care Ethical and safer practices Use quality improvement and patient safety approaches Use information technology 3

(2) Say nothing but use safe hand hygiene practices (3) Say something in respectful manner to the doctor concerned and continue to use safe hand hygiene practices Medical Hierarchies Site of surgery Surgeon does not participate in checking the correct site for surgery or verifying the correct patient The surgeon is resentful of the pre-operative checking protocol, believing it to be a waste of time, and pressures the rest of the team to hurry-up. Adopt the approach of the surgeon and don t participate in checking decide that checking is too menial a task for a doctor anyway. (1) Actively help the rest of the team to complete the checking protocol Heterogeneous Solo No assistants New tech and materials More invasive adverse events in dentistry 5
