Abstract

Patient safety has become a key issue in health care since the Institute of Medicine (IOM)1 released the report To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System. This landmark report examined the extent of preventable patient injuries and deaths occurring in US hospitals. It was estimated that between 44,000 and 98,000 people die annually as a result of medical errors and that nearly half were preventable. Subsequent studies2 suggest that the medical error rate is even higher. These statistics are a call to action for case managers to explore creative ways to implement patient safety practices in their systems and procedures.

自从医学研究所(IOM)发布了《人孰无过:建立一个更安全的卫生系统》报告以来,患者安全已成为卫生保健领域的一个关键问题。这份具有里程碑意义的报告审查了在美国医院发生的可预防的病人伤害和死亡的程度。据估计,每年有44 000至98 000人死于医疗事故,其中近一半是可以预防的。随后的研究表明,医疗错误率甚至更高。这些统计数据呼吁病例管理人员采取行动,探索在其系统和程序中实施患者安全实践的创造性方法。
