Derek Malyon 6 Posted 24 November, 2020 Overview Human error (HE) in global medicine kills 2.6 million annually placing patient safety on the G20 Summit (1). Solutions available (a) more staff training dominated by a HE-rate of about one error in 200 tasks and (b) a simple computer system used by high reliability organisations such as Banking with zero HE. With 70% of adverse events occurring on wards, patients should electronically acknowledge each intervention with their wristband-data. Missed interventions now detectable are compellingly alarmed reducing the consequences of HE 10,000 fold. Problem: The Healthcare sector have no “HE Recovery Protocols” on their wards (2a) This massive management error is punishable with fines and imprisonment across every other sector including Nuclear Rail Shipping etc. by the CPS here in the U.K. HE recovery protocol for ward-patient safety The patient is placed in a computerised quality-loop enabling them to acknowledge received MDT interventions by tagging their personal wristband-data back to the computer care plan. Missed interventions easily detected by the software-checklist now compellingly alarmed on-screen in front of health worker and patient. Nigh impossible to ignore, missed interventions are corrected, reducing the consequences of HE by more than a factor of ten thousand (104) (2b). Example: Opioid overdose prevention Software analyses patient's analgesic ladder. Their previously tagged opioid consumption displayed with opioid headroom warning. The patient tags acknowledging and updating the new opioid volume correctly administered. The system would have saved 450 Gosport patients 30-years ago, and currently under live investigation by Police (Operation Magenta). Conclusion Placing the ward patient in a computer driven tagged quality loop significantly reduces HE-consequences improving compliance lowering death rates adverse events bed-days and litigation. The tag system has a long-standing pedigree too. U.K. Bank customers have electronically tagged 30 million times a day, keeping accounts healthy and error free for decades. Please could colleagues on the hub help the NHS/CQC understand this established Industrial H&S concept with a view to trialling it. (Sums: 2.6m/10,000=2600 saving 2,597,400 annually?)

I hope the #NHS I.T. will catch up with this. It shows that health is not 'unique' when it comes to safety and human error. I particularly like the way the patient is an equal part of this solution. I agree...'The system would have saved 450 Gosport patients 30-years ago, and currently under live investigation by Police (Operation Magenta).' Thank you. 2 reactions so far Derek Malyon 6 Posted 30 November, 2020 Hello Steve Thank you so much for your two replies. Your understanding is spot on. This ends an 11-year journey of countless letters and emails to numerous NHS departments that stonewall. The Industrial H&S concept of (a) detect error and (b) alarm, is fundamental across all sectors. The health sector high on learning and countless articles need to come down to earth and copy the solution adopted some 30 or 40-years ago with the introduction of the micro in the 80's. The patient safety leads really need to get to grips with this Patient Safety and WB Solution. Everyday 2.6m/365 customers killed across this outdated healthcare sector without human error recovery protocols and the klaxon. Thank you so much Steve.
