Abstract

AIMS

Our primary objective is to investigate the baseline status of patients' awareness, knowledge, and attitudes to patient safety. The secondary objective of this research is to determine factors that influence patients' knowledge regarding patient safety.

METHODS

We performed a cross-sectional study with a targeted sample of 410 patients at King Khalid University Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Self-administered paper-based questionnaires were distributed to outpatient clinics on February 2, 2019 until March 20, 2019. Finally, the data were analyzed by (SPSS).

RESULTS

There were 450 questioners distributed, and 410 were completed and returned (91% response rate). Most of the patients were below the age of 50 (77.9%), 54.8%, of them were females, and almost half received higher education (54.1%). Among the respondents who are taking drugs, 21.6% do not have any knowledge about the side effects of their drugs, and 47.8% of patients said that their physicians do not tell them the side effects of their prescribed drugs. Whereas 20.7% of patients claimed that they experienced a medical error, 66.3% did not report the errors, and the reason was not knowing how to report or to whom in 54.4% of the patients. In regards of infection control, 47% of the participants misunderstood means to prevent the spread of the infections and how it could be transmitted.

CONCLUSION

Patients' knowledge about patient safety need to be improved. We suggest educating the patients by providing training programs for patients, and we recommend further studies.

摘要

目的

我们的主要目标是调查患者对患者安全的认知、知识和态度的基线状况。本研究的次要目标是确定影响患者关于患者安全知识的因素。

方法

我们在沙特阿拉伯利雅得的哈立德国王大学医院对410名患者进行了有针对性的横断面研究。2019年2月2日至2019年3月20日，向门诊诊所发放了自行填写的纸质问卷。最后，数据通过（社会科学统计软件包）进行分析。

结果

共发放问卷450份，410份完成并回收（回复率91%）。大多数患者年龄在50岁以下（77.9%），其中54.8%为女性，近一半接受过高等教育（54.1%）。在正在服药的受访者中，21.6%对其药物的副作用一无所知，47.8%的患者表示他们的医生没有告知他们所开药物的副作用。然而，20.7%的患者声称他们经历过医疗差错，66.3%的患者没有报告这些差错，54.4%的患者表示原因是不知道如何报告或向谁报告。在感染控制方面，47%的参与者误解了预防感染传播的方法以及感染的传播途径。
