Failure of communication of critical information during handoffs is one of the leading causes of medical errors, resulting in serious, yet preventable, adverse events in hospitals across the United States. Recent studies have shown that a majority of these errors occur during patient handoffs, with notable communication gaps in interdisciplinary handoffs. We suggest some features that would improve the handoff usability and effectiveness for interdisciplinary medical and nursing teams while potentially improving patient safety.
交接班期间关键信息传递失败是医疗差错的主要原因之一,在美国各地的医院中导致了严重但可预防的不良事件。最近的研究表明,这些差错大多发生在患者交接班期间,跨学科交接班中存在明显的沟通差距。我们提出了一些功能,这些功能将提高跨学科医疗和护理团队交接班的可用性和有效性,同时有可能提高患者安全。
