Patient Safety: Research into Practice Zusammenfassung

Patient Safety: Research into Practice Kieran Walshe

Winner of the Basis of Medicine Award in the BMA Book Medical Book Competition 2006!

In many countries, during the last decade there has been a growing public realization that healthcare organisations are often dangerous places to be. Reports published in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, United Kingdom and the USA have served to focus public and policy attention on the safety of patients and to highlight the alarmingly high incidence of errors and adverse events that lead to some kind of harm or injury.

This book presents a research-based perspective on patient safety, drawing together the most recent ideas and thinking from researchers on how to research and understand patient safety issues, and how research findings are used to shape policy and practice. The book examines key issues, including:

  • Analysis and measurement of patient safety
  • Approaches to improving patient safety
  • Future policy and practice regarding patient safety
  • The legal dimensions of patient safety
Patient Safety is essential reading for researchers, policy makers and practitioners involved in, or interested in, patient safety. The book is also of interest to the growing number of postgraduate students on health policy and health management programmes that focus upon healthcare quality, risk management and patient safety.
