Summary
This study, published in the Journal of Patient Safety, looks at how preventable adverse events and near misses are identified, based on data from an acute care hospital in western Sweden. It examines how many events are identified through structured record review, web-based incident reporting and daily safety briefings, and the different types of events identified by each method. Reflecting on its findings, the authors suggest that health care organisations should adopt multiple methods to get a comprehensive review of the number and type of events occurring in their setting.
