Abstract By understanding that error-particularly human error-is inevitable but still largely preventable, patient safety efforts focus on improving systems, creating fail-safe mechanisms that intercept error before it reaches the bedside, and on implementing measures that mitigate harm when an error involves the patient. [7] The most common systems deficiencies identified as underlying clinical errors are failures in dissemination of drug knowledge or its updating, and inadequate availability of patient information such as test results necessary for safe treatment.
