Adverse event (AE) detection and reporting practices were compared during the first phase of the Emergency Department Safety Assessment and Follow-up Evaluation (ED-SAFE), a suicide intervention study. Data were collected using a combination of chart reviews and structured telephone follow-up assessments postenrollment. Beyond chart reviews, structured telephone follow-up assessments identified 45% of the total AEs in our study. Notably, detection of suicide attempts significantly varied by approach with 53 (18%) detected by chart review, 173 (59%) by structured telephone follow-up assessments, and 69 (23%) marked as duplicates. Findings provide support for utilizing multiple methods for more robust AE detection in suicide research.
在一项自杀干预研究——急诊科安全评估与后续评价(ED-SAFE)的第一阶段,对不良事件(AE)的检测和报告做法进行了比较。入组后,通过病历审查和结构化电话随访评估相结合的方式收集数据。除病历审查外,结构化电话随访评估发现了我们研究中45%的AE。值得注意的是,自杀未遂的检测方法差异显著,病历审查检测到53例(18%),结构化电话随访评估检测到173例(59%),69例(23%)被标记为重复。研究结果支持在自杀研究中采用多种方法进行更有力的AE检测。
