2 2 IDENTIFYING HAZARDS AND NEAR MISSES
3 WHAT IS A HAZARD? In healthcare, a HAZARD is anything in the clinical environment that poses a risk for harm to a patient or provider Hazards are equivalent to risk factors Hazard is a pre-close call
4 4 HAZARD - EXAMPLE Compressed-air tubing with IV-type connector
5 HAZARD - EXAMPLE Bone cement expiration date is hidden on the larger, unseen surfaces of the flat packaging
6
7 HOW DO YOU CONTROL HAZARDS? CONTROL HAZARDS so that they cannot do any harm Use Hierarchy of Hazard Control from Engineering Effectiveness Eliminate Hazard Guard Against Hazard Train to Avoid Hazards Warn Against Hazard Hierarchy of Hazard Control Columbia University, Wireless Informatics for Safe and Evidence-based (WISE) APN Care
8 CONTROLLING HAZARDS THROUGH HUMAN FACTORS ENGINEERING Code Cart drawer redesign Nurses timed in retrieving 10 drugs from baseline and redesigned crash cart med drawer McLaughlin: Am J Nurs, Volume 103(4).April 2003
9 BASELINE DRAWER ( LAUNDRY HAMPER ) RANGE = 2:43-3:58 MIN, AVG=3:07 MIN Note the multiple orientations
10 CODE CART DRAWER THIRD VERSION AVG= 1:40MIN Note pale background
11 11 CODE CART DRAWER FIFTH VERSION RANGE = :55-1:25 MIN, AVG=1MIN 08SEC Note: Might improve if used labels for each spot

14 WHAT IS A NEAR MISS? Also known as CLOSE CALL An event or situation that did not produce patient injury, but only because of chance. This good fortune might reflect robustness of the patient (e.g., a patient with penicillin allergy receives penicillin, but has no reaction) or a fortuitous, timely intervention (e.g., a nurse happens to realize that a physician wrote an order in the wrong chart). (AHRQ) Unplanned vs. planned interventions
15 NEAR MISSES & CULTURE OF SAFETY Near misses are times more common than human error Noting near misses and dealing with them is a marker for a culture of safety People are more willing to analyze and delve into near misses (perhaps because of less shame?)
16 16
17 17 NEAR MISS EXAMPLES Transfusion Slip H.S. Kaplan MRIs and sandbags NJ DHHS
18 18 TRANSFUSION 1. Couple placed in adjacent trauma bay beds post car accident 2. Both type and cross-matched for transfusion 3. Stickers placed on wrong tubes 4. Transfusion ordered for wife who had received a transfusion on a prior admission 5. Laboratory technologist noticed change in blood type and called ER where blood was re-drawn 6. Consequently, the patient did not receive the wrong blood
19 19 MRI AND SANDBAGS Patient post-operative cardiac catheterization had sandbag placed on groin per protocol Emergency MRI Bag moved from groin and adhered to rim of MRI machine Patient was removed without injury Analysis revealed that sandbags filled with metal shots, not sand
