个人简介
My research is concerned with understanding how healthcare can become safer. While healthcare brings huge benefits errors are frequent and many patients come to some harm during their care. This area of work is now usually described as ‘patient safety’. Much of my early research was aimed at understanding why things go wrong in healthcare and developing methods of analysing the problems that occur. We also found that about 10% of patients in British hospitals suffer some kind of harm during their care, about half of which is preventable. All other healthcare systems have similar problems not just the NHS. My colleagues and I have also studied teamwork in the operating theatre and in other contexts as good teamwork is essential to safe, high quality care. We have developed methods of measuring teamwork and training programmes using simulation to enhance teamwork skills. I also have a longstanding concern about the effect of errors on both patients and staff. Patients can suffer a variety of psychological problems after medical error in addition to any physical effects. The impact on staff is also considerable. For instance surgeons may suffer great anguish when they feel responsible for the death of injury of a patient.
