Summary
Patients in inpatient mental health settings face similar risks (eg, medication errors) to those in other areas of healthcare. In addition, some unsafe behaviours associated with serious mental health problems (eg, self-harm), and the measures taken to address these (eg, restraint), may result in further risks to patient safety. The objective of this review, published in BMJ Open, is to identify and synthesise the literature on patient safety within inpatient mental health settings using robust systematic methodology.
