Summary
This article describes how Never Events (NE) are serious clinical incidents that cause harm to patients. The authors analysed data from NHS England to categorise themes and identify common NE. Their results revealed 51 common NE themes in four main categories out of a total of 3247 between 2012 and 2020, identifying wrong-site surgery as the most common category. The authors conclude that with this research, awareness may help to reduce the amount of incidences in the future.
