Summary
This letter in the BMJ in 2004 from Richard Thomson highlights the difficulty of accurately quantifying patient safety incidents. Thomson writes that data relevant to patient safety should not be presented alone and out of context. He highlights what was the National Patient Safety Agency and the development of a national reporting and learning system to enable healthcare staff to report incidents anonymously.
