Five years after publication of the Institute for Medicine's landmark 1999 report,To Err Is Human, notable advances have been made. They include the development of performance standards, an increase in error reporting, integration of information technology, and improved safety systems. But the IOM notes that efforts are still needed to improve safety and reduce errors, including development of data standards for patient safety information, establishment of a national health information infrastructure, and comprehensive patient safety programs in health care organizations.
在医学研究所1999年具有里程碑意义的报告《人皆有过》发表五年后，已经取得了显著进展。这些进展包括制定绩效标准、增加错误报告、信息技术的整合以及安全系统的改进。但医学研究所指出，仍需做出努力来提高安全性并减少错误，包括制定患者安全信息的数据标准、建立国家卫生信息基础设施以及在医疗保健机构开展全面的患者安全项目。
