The Science of Patient Safety
Outcomes At the end of this webinar you will be able to…
• Describe the evolution of patient safety as a science
• Discuss new ideas in patient safety including HRO’s, human factors, safety culture & Safety II.
• Apply methods to improve measure and monitor safety in your work place

A Vision for Patient Safety
“Knowledgeable patients receiving safe and effective care from skilled professionals in appropriate environments with assessed outcomes”
Irish National Adverse Events Study Rafter et al. BMJ Qual Saf. 2016 Feb 9.
What is patient safety?
“The avoidance, prevention and amelioration of adverse
outcomes or injuries stemming from the process of
healthcare”
Charles Vincent
Error & Harm
Error (commission & omission)
• Slips
• Lapses
• Mistakes
Harm
Error
“…a generic term to encompass all those occasions in which a planned sequence of mental or physical activities fails to achieve its intended outcome, and when these failures cannot be attributed to the intervention of some chance agency.”
Dr. James Reason
Harm
“An injury arising from the process of healthcare that you would not wish to happen to you or a loved one”
Categorising Harm
Category A Error potential
Category B to D Error no harm
Category E to H Harm occurs with increasing injury & need for intervention
Category I Death
Error & Harm
Error
Harm
Non-preventable
Preventable
So, who is responsible?
A Systems Perspective
“ Rather than being the main instigators of
an accident, operators tend to be the
inheritors of system defects…..
their part is that of adding the final garnish
to a lethal brew that has been long in the
cooking.”

Human Factors
Acnordicg to resraech at Cambrdige Unrveisity, it deosn't mettar in waht oedrr the lertets in a wrod are. The olny ipmortant tihng is taht the fisrt and lsat letter be in the rgiht palce.

The Human Factor
• We learn from recognising our errors
• We have good days & bad days
• We get tired, sore and sick
• We have cognitive limitations
• We don’t always say what we mean
• We have lives outside of work
Cognitive Error
Dual process model for decision making.

• Enhance knowledge and awareness of cognitive biases
• Enhance professional reasoning, critical thinking and decision-making skills
• Enhance work system conditions, workflow design that affect cognition

Importance of Culture
‘In the end, culture will trump rules, standards and control strategies every single time, and achieving a vastly safer NHS will depend far more on major cultural change than on a new regulatory regime.’

“When as kids we came to an orchard wall that seemed too high to climb, we took off our caps and tossed them over the wall, and then we had no choice but to follow them. I had tossed my cap over the wall of life, and I knew I must follow it, wherever it had fallen.”
