Abstract

La crise sanitaire voit nombre de praticiens devoir prendre des décisions inédites, engager leur responsabilité, faire face au doute. Mais ont-ils pour autant le droit à l'erreur ? Que doivent-ils faire quand celle-ci se produit ? Des questions encore taboues, dont les réponses imposeront au monde médical de profondes mutations. Au cours d'une opération bénigne, Eric Vibert, expert reconnu de la chirurgie du foie, commet une erreur, sans s'en rendre compte, qui entraîne sur son patient nombre de complications inattendues. Il réalise alors qu'il est temps de changer le rapport des praticiens à leurs erreurs. Tous gagneraient à les communiquer, les comprendre afin d'éviter qu'elles ne se reproduisent. Or, ce n'est pas ainsi que fonctionne le monde médical. C'est même, en l'état actuel, contraire à la pratique. Le manque de transparence règne en maître. L'erreur est passée sous silence, rarement analysée, jamais enseignée. Pourtant, n'est-elle pas inévitable ? Tout simplement humaine ? En associant à cette réflexion inédite le récit de ses expériences au bloc opératoire, le professeur Vibert brosse le portrait d'une profession en quête de progrès. Et milite pour que le sacro-saint système de mandarinat qui rend souverain le corps médical soit enfin entièrement réinventé. La perception qu'ont eue les Français de ce doute omniprésent depuis des mois aurait assurément été différente si ce droit à l'erreur avait existé. Avec courage, humilité et une remarquable compétence, l'auteur pose les termes de ce débat citoyen, et invite à repenser la place du chirurgien et plus largement des praticiens dans notre société.

Abstract

While Americans spend more on health care than any other country in the western world, our hospitals and clinics kill more patients. Patient safety expert Dr. Peter Pronovost is working to remedy that, by changing the way hospitals and doctors function day to day. In fact, his ideas are already saving people. By introducing a five-step checklist that standardizes a common ICU procedure, Dr. Pronovost has decreased the rate of infection--and as a result, unnecessary deaths--across the country by 90 percent. In this book, Dr. Pronovost makes reform relatable, easy to understand, and inspiring.--From publisher description.

Abstract

Una sanità sempre più di qualità e sicura è un obiettivo che presuppone un modello di governo clinico capace di mettere continuamente alla prova non solo la professionalità, ma anche la mentalità, le abitudini e icomportamenti di ogni operatore sanitario. Il riferimento deve essere sempre il paziente, adeguatamente informato per essere responsabile del proprio percorso di salute. La sicurezza nei percorsi sanitari e assistenziali, assieme al rispetto delle procedure e dei protocolli diagnostico-terapeutici, deve quindi divenire il principio su cui basare qualsiasi proposta organizzativa in sanità. La seconda edizione del volume di Charles Vincent, Patient Safety – presentato per la prima volta in versione italiana – rappresenta un’utilissima guida al miglioramento delle procedure relative alla sicurezza in ambito sanitario. Questo libro rappresenta un utile strumento per la formazione delle nuove generazioni di operatori sanitari, affinché, fin dalla preparazione universitaria e poi nell’educazione continua, la qualità e la sicurezza delle cure divengano un pilastro fondamentale nella cultura professionale e manageriale del presente e del futuro.

Abstract

Despite the evolution and growing awareness of patient safety, many medical professionals are not a part of this important conversation.  Clinicians often believe they are too busy taking care of patients to adopt and implement patient safety initiatives and that acknowledging medical errors is an affront to their skills. Patient Safety provides clinicians with a better understanding of the prevalence, causes and solutions for medical errors; bringing best practice principles to the bedside.  Written by experts from a variety of backgrounds, each chapter features an analysis of clinical cases based on the Root Cause Analysis (RCA) methodology, along with case-based discussions on various patient safety topics.  The systems and processes outlined in the book are general and broadly applicable to institutions of all sizes and structures.  The core ethic of medical professionals is to “do no harm”.  Patient Safety is a comprehensive resource for physicians, nurses and students, as well as healthcare leaders and administrators for identifying, solving and preventing medical error.
