- Prevalence, severity, and nature of preventable patient harm across medical care settings: systematic review and meta-analysis (2019, background): “7 Similarly, only six selected types of preventable patient harms in English hospitals result in 934 excell bed days per 100 000 population, which is equivalent to over 3500 salaried hospital nurses each year.”
- Association of resident fatigue and distress with perceived medical errors. (2009, background): “As many as 50% of hospitalized patients may be affected by medical errors,(2,3) and the human and monetary costs of these events are great.(4,5) Numerous reports have implicated fatigue and sleepiness as contributors to medical errors.”
- The epidemiology and attributable outcomes of candidemia in adults and children hospitalized in the United States: a propensity analysis. (2005, background): “In general, health services researchers believe that the procedure of using ICD-9-CM codes to identify cases in administrative databases, although high in specificity (i.e., few instances in which cases were not diagnosed with the condition), may be lower in sensitivity (i.e., the administrative dia”
- The effect of age on the development and outcome of adult sepsis* (2006, background): “This will create greater inpatient hospital expenditures for sepsis, costing $20,000–60,000 per case (14, 44), and disproportionate allocation of resources for sepsis care based on shifting population demographics, with the elderly population increasing by 44% during the study period compared with t”
- Features and uses of high-fidelity medical simulations that lead to effective learning: a BEME systematic review (2005, background): “For example, Stephen J. Lurie, former Senior Editor of the Journal of the American Medical Association, recently published an essay titled, ‘Raising the passing grade for studies of medical education’ (Lurie, 2003).”
- Association of perceived medical errors with resident distress and empathy: a prospective longitudinal study. (2006, background): “The morbidity, mortality, and financial costs of these events may be great.(9-13) Many reports on medical errors have focused on the rate at which errors affect patients.”
