Every pediatric emergency medicine provider will be involved in medical errors during their career and many will face the prospect of at least one malpractice lawsuit. These events can cause significant stress, including detrimental effects on providers' mental and physical health. This stress may also impact the provider's ability to care for future patients. In this installment of our series, "A Call to Restore Your Calling: Self-care of the Emergency Physician in the Face of Life-Changing Stress," we examine how medical errors and malpractice lawsuits may affect providers and how individuals and organizations can address these events.
每位儿科急诊医学从业者在其职业生涯中都会遭遇医疗失误，而且许多人将面临至少一场医疗事故诉讼的可能。这些事件会造成巨大压力，包括对从业者身心健康的不利影响。这种压力也可能影响从业者照料未来患者的能力。在我们系列文章的这一期“呼吁重拾使命：面对改变人生的压力时急诊医生的自我关怀”中，我们探讨医疗失误和医疗事故诉讼可能如何影响从业者，以及个人和组织如何应对这些事件。
