Produktbeschreibung
Despite sustained efforts to improve patient safety, preventable harm remains a persistent challenge in healthcare. Panagioti's 2019 meta-analytic indicate a 6% prevalence of avoidable patient harm, with 12% of these events resulting in severe outcomes or mortality. Progress in general has been limited, and a paradigm shift is needed. This second edition of Practical Patient Safety shows frontline doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals how techniques developed and used by staff in High Reliability Organisations, such as the railway and aviation industries. It builds on the foundational aim of its predecessor, which is to equip individual healthcare professionals with practical, evidence-based techniques for error prevention in routine clinical settings. Drawing on insights from high-reliability industries such as aviation and rail, the book explores how small, intentional changes in communication, crisis management, and workplace civility can disrupt error chains and enhance safety. With a focus on actionable strategies as structured readback, precise language use, and simulation-based preparation, this title provides a basic advice for the individual health care worker on error prevention in their day-to-day practice.

He has been actively engaged for many years in training doctors and medical students in techniques that can be used to prevent and mitigate the effects of error in healthcare. He is a co-author of 'Practical Patient Safety', published by Oxford University Press, which demonstrates how principles of safety derived from high reliability organisations such as the aviation and petrochemical industries can be applied in surgical and medical practice, in particular through training for health care professionals. Peter Stevenson has been an Airline Pilot and Human Factors Instructor for over 30 years, starting one of the first Human Factors courses in the UK. He flies Airbus A330 airliners on intercontinental routes for a major UK airline. Since 1999 he has designed and presented Human Factors / Patient Safety courses in 5 NHS Trusts. For the last 14 years he has lectured 4th year medical students at the University of Oxford. He has chaired a committee to recommend measures to respond to a fatal adverse event which occurred during surgery on a child. He had also advised other NHS Trusts after adverse events. He joint-authored a book entitled 'Practical Patient Safety' published by Oxford University Press. Kenneth Catchpole is a Human Factors Engineer who has spent the last 23 years studying and improving safety in acute care. Locally, he applies human factors expertise in accident analysis and quality improvement across the clinical enterprise, while also leading research that includes sterile processing, retained foreign objects, diagnostic excellence, anesthesia medication delivery, robotic surgery, congenital heart surgery and neonatal resuscitation. Through over 160 peer-reviewed publications, public speaking, and the media, he has engaged thousands of people in the improvement of healthcare from a human-centered perspective, while working to embed human factors practice in everyday care.
