Root Cause Analysis: 1 day masterclass
Patient Safety Learning posted an event in Community Calendar
This intensive masterclass will provide in-house Root Cause Analysis training in line with The NHS Patient Safety Strategy (July 2019). The course will offer a practical guide to Root Cause Analysis with a focus on systems-based patient safety investigation as proposed by the forthcoming National Patient Safety Incident Response Framework which emphasises the requirement for investigations to be led by those with safety investigation training/expertise and with dedicated time and resource to complete the work. This course will include an opportunity for learners to gain a Level 3 qualification (A level equivalent) in RCA skills (2 credits / 20 hours) on successful completion of a short-written assignment. This one-day course is designed to provide delegates with the key skills and knowledge that they will require to conduct Root Cause Analysis effectively. The course content walks learners through the seven-key stages to conducting a high-quality Root Cause Analysis investigation. We pay particular attention to planning and managing investigations, interviewing staff, mapping information, using appropriate analysis tools to establish contributory factors, plus focus on creating fit-for-purpose action plans and final reports. We advocate Root Cause Analysis as a teambased approach and concur with NHS Improvement’s 2018 statement ‘investigations must be led by trained investigators with the support of an appropriately resourced investigation team’. hub members receive a 20% discount.

Content ArticleMorbidity and Mortality Conferences (MMCs) and Experience Feedback Committees (EFCs) are two strategies to support individual and organisational learning from adverse events. This study, conducted at one French hospital, examined whether MMCs and EFCs improve patient safety culture among healthcare professionals. Findings suggest that participation in MMCs and EFCs improves certain aspects of safety culture (error response, organizational learning), but systemic challenges, such as staffing and leadership support, hinder widespread improvements.

Content ArticleA hospital-acquired pressure ulcer (HAPU) is a localised lesion or injury to the underlying tissue (wound) that happens while a patient is staying in hospital. It occurs when standardised nursing care is not correctly followed in the presence of friction and shear, leading to skin or underlying tissue breakdown. Unfortunately, inadequate knowledge of nurses to assess and provide standardised care for pressure ulcers or manage HAPUs results in patient harm. This study shared lessons from a reported HAPU incident and aimed to address the knowledge gap in patient safety risk assessment, identification and wound management at Nyaho Medical Centre (Accra, Ghana). A review of HAPU incidents was conducted using quality improvement tools such as cause-and-effect analyses to identify contributing factors and root causes. Subsequently, plan-do-study-act (PDSA) cycles were used to test interventions to improve pressure ulcer assessments and wound management. A run chart was used to analyse and evaluate the interventions over time. Development of policies, SOPs and training for assessing and managing pressure ulcers and wounds reduced the number of HAPUs during the project period. This project demonstrated that the combined use of quality methods and tools can be suitable for improving processes and outcomes for patients at risk for HAPUs.

Content ArticleHealth systems currently present a great degree of complexity, which provides risks to patients related to healthcare, and the possibility of incidents with or without harm. Patient safety culture highlights the need to investigate, analyse, and mitigate incidents to reduce risks to the patient. Medication errors have a high potential to do harm in paediatric hospital routines and most of them are preventable. The objective of this study was to describe a severe drug-related adverse event and present the root cause analysis and implemented improvements.

Content ArticleThe fishbone diagram is a widely-used patient safety tool that helps to facilitate root cause analysis discussions. The authors of this article in the journal Diagnosis expanded this tool to reflect how both systems errors and individual cognitive errors contribute to diagnostic errors. They describe how two medical centres in the US have applied this modified fishbone diagram to approach diagnostic errors in a way that better meets their patient safety and educational needs.

Content ArticleThis paper, published in Applied Ergonomics, looks at how those in healthcare might select which technique to use to predict error. The author concludes: "there is a lack of practical experiences described in the literature to conclusively define a technique for selection and a need for a dedicated research in this area to make it accessible for healthcare and other novice users".

Content ArticleWork to prepare for transition to working within the Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) in the Autumn of 2023 is well underway by healthcare providers across England. Written for all those involved in implementing PSIRF, this article describes some of the reasons behind the challenges being faced and suggests three principles to help navigate through this complex process and offers practical ideas to help.

Root Cause Analysis: 2 day masterclass

untilThis two day intensive masterclass will provide Root Cause Analysis Training in line with the July 2019 Patient Safety Strategy. This intensive two day masterclass will provide Root Cause Analysis training in line with the 2019 Patient Safety Strategy and subsequent guidance. The course will offer a practical guide to conducting RCA with a focus on systems-based patient safety investigation as proposed within the latest guidance released by NHS England and NHS Improvement. The course provides insights into how RCA is evolving and gives detailed information on what standards RCA investigations are expected to reach following the detailed recent reviews of patient safety work across the NHS and healthcare. The new National Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) published in 2020 highlights important changes to the way safety incidents will be investigated, which is reflected in this course. Key new content includes: Promotion of RCA as a tool for learning & improvement. Emphasis on increased use of listening & interview (staff and patients) to gain a better understanding of what has happened. The importance of Safety II and focusing on system strengths, plus linking RCAs to QI & clinical audit. More emphasis on human factors. Brief information on approaches that may be more appropriate to RCA (e.g. significant event analysis, after-action reviews). Register hub members receive a 20% discount.
