    Reporters in the US from the Houston Chronicle and NBC News spent nine months examining more than 40 cases and spoke with more than 100 attorneys, doctors and current and former state employees. Their reporting reveals that some doctors have diagnosed child abuse with a degree of certainty that critics say is not supported by science. This article, the first in a series, was published in partnership with NBC News.

    Dorit describes the assessment and subsequent death of her much loved daughter-in-law who died during a psychotic episode having been discharged the previous evening. Her story raises a number of questions: How should families be included in making judgements and assessments about the patient and their well-being? What support do they need to care for a very distressed loved one? Why aren't written care and contingency plans provided to the patient and their family? What more needs to be done to ensure standard practices are in place to protect patients with psychosis?

    Due to COVID-19 and the safety issues the pandemic is highlighting, I have decided to write a sequel to my previous blog 'Dropped instrument, washed and immediately reused'. I am writing this because it recently came to my notice from colleagues that safety is once again being compromised in the same private hospital where my shifts were blocked after I reported a patient safety incident.

    Patient safety event reporting systems are a mainstay in non-punitive reporting of near misses and adverse events. The authors of this study, published in the American Journal of Surgery, hypothesised that an upgraded reporting system that included the ability to report positive behaviours would increase behavioural reports in the perioperative environment. After implementation of an upgraded reporting system that includes an option for positive reporting, the number and length of reports increased. The authors believe that a robust reporting system has contributed to a culture of safety at their institution.

    Kathy Nabbie reflects on the recent flights caught up in Storm Dennis and how 'routine' quickly became 'out of the ordinary'. As with aviation, in surgery we must always do the safety checks for each patient to ensure that every journey for the patient is a safe one.

    Technology is often viewed as either positive or negative. On one hand weight loss apps are usually seen as a positive influence on users. From the sociocultural perspective, on the other hand, media and technology can negatively impact body satisfaction and contribute to eating disorders; however, these studies fail to include weight loss apps. While these apps can be beneficial to users, they can also have negative effects on users with eating disorder behaviours. Yet few research studies have looked at weight loss apps in relation to eating disorders. In order to fill this gap,these researchers conducted interviews with 16 women with a history of eating disorders who use(d) weight loss apps. While findings suggest these apps can contribute to and exacerbate eating disorder behaviours, they also reveal a more complex picture of app usage. Women’s use and perceptions of weight loss apps shift as they experience life and move to and from stages of change. This research troubles the binary view of technology and emphasises the importance of looking at technology use as a dynamic process. This study contributes to the understanding of weight loss app design.

    Despite dealing with biomedical practices, infection prevention and control (IPC) is essentially a behavioural science. Human behaviour is influenced by various factors, including culture. This paper by M.A. Borg, published in the Journal of Hospital Infection, analyses the cultural determinants of infection control behaviour.

    'Hospitals should remove any barriers to doctors eating and drinking during the working day'. As healthcare providers, it’s easy to forget to look after ourselves at work. We know that taking breaks and eating and drinking regularly is a critical component of being “optimised,” helping to sustain our energy, concentration and performance, and reduce the risk of human error. Yet, for many, the realities of working in busy, modern hospitals get in the way. Medicine is a demanding profession, with days often starting early and finishing late and many fall into the habit of forgetting to take regular breaks, not drinking enough fluids, or missing meals. If we want to improve staff wellbeing and reduce the risk of errors, we need to change this.

    This document by the Restraint Reduction Network offers a framework to support care providers in reducing the use of restrictive practices. Restrictive practices are often a response to behaviours seen by care providers and wider society as ‘behaviours of concern’ or ‘challenging behaviour’. These behaviours can occasionally include wilful acts that have the potential to cause harm, but more often than not, these behaviours are symptoms of distress or frustration and a response to the environment or situation that a person finds themselves in. This document outlines the National Minimum Standards for the content of Restrictive Interventions Reduction Plans in mental health and learning disability settings.
