With the start of the 21st century, patient safety as a topic of special interest has attracted increasing attention in both academia and clinical practice. As technology has continued to develop since then, questions and focal points surrounding the topic have also shifted. In particular, questions regarding the impact of digitalization on patient safety and its measurement are now of high interest. This work aims to develop a maturity assessment instrument in the form of a criteria set for measuring structural requirements for digital patient safety in hospitals. Based on the results of a literature review and a derivation of maturity objects (MO) from known maturity models, 64 criteria across 11 categories were developed. Written comments of two digital patient safety experts as well as subsequent interviews were used to evaluate and refine the criteria catalog. The resulting catalog offers hospitals guidance for detecting possible areas of structural improvements in their information systems with regard to patient safety and represents a unique instrument for assessing digital maturity in this particular area.
随着 21 世纪的开始，作为一个特别关注的话题，患者安全在学术界和临床实践中引起了越来越多的关注。自那时以来，随着技术的不断发展，围绕该主题的问题和焦点也发生了转移。特别是，关于数字化对患者安全的影响及其衡量标准的问题现在非常关注。这项工作旨在开发一种成熟度评估工具，以准则集的形式衡量医院数字患者安全的结构要求。基于文献回顾的结果和从已知成熟度模型中推导出的成熟度对象 (MO)，制定了 11 个类别下的 64 个标准。两位数字患者安全专家的书面意见以及随后的访谈用于评估和完善标准目录。由此产生的目录为医院提供了指导，帮助他们检测信息系统中可能存在的与患者安全相关的结构改进领域，并代表了评估该特定领域数字化成熟度的独特工具。
