To determine if factors associated with medication errors explained perceived harmful outcome from such errors, perceptions of vividly recollected medication errors were reported by a convenience sample of 206 hospital-employed RNs and LPNs who completed the Medication Error Risk Profile (MERP). Symptoms related to the error, radiology studies performed, the toxicity of the medication given, adverse drug reaction unrecognized at first, and transfer of the patient to another unit explained 38% of the variance in perceived harmful outcome. The implications of the this study for medical-surgical nurses are explored.
为了确定与用药错误相关的因素是否能解释此类错误导致的感知到的有害后果,206名受雇于医院的注册护士(RN)和执照职业护士(LPN)组成的便利样本报告了对清晰回忆起的用药错误的看法,这些护士完成了用药错误风险概况(MERP)。与错误相关的症状、进行的放射学检查、所给药物的毒性、最初未识别的药物不良反应以及患者转至另一科室,解释了感知到的有害后果中38%的变异。本文探讨了该研究对内科-外科护士的意义。
