😨 Error Médico Grave

El primer párrafo describe el sistema de salud del Reino Unido y su enfoque en la seguridad del paciente. Se menciona que los errores médicos y el cuidado inseguro son más comunes de lo que se pensaba anteriormente, con una frecuencia de 1 en 10 pacientes hospitalizados afectados por algún tipo de error. Se analiza en profundidad el fenómeno del error de inyección intraespinal, donde un medicamento destinado a ser administrado intravenosamente se inyecta erróneamente en la médula espinal, lo que puede llevar a parálisis y muerte. Se discuten cerca de 50 incidentes registrados a nivel mundial y se sugiere que hay muchos más que no han sido registrados. Se destaca la importancia de analizar estos errores para prevenirlos en el futuro y se presenta el filme de la Alianza Mundial para la Seguridad del Paciente, que busca compartir la experiencia del Reino Unido a nivel mundial.

05:07

🚑 Atención y Coordinación en el Servicio de Salud

El segundo párrafo sigue la rutina caótica y las interacciones entre el personal médico en un hospital, incluyendo la coordinación de procedimientos médicos y la gestión de emergencias personales. Se discuten las dificultades de la planificación de procedimientos médicos para pacientes como Jane Hughes, quien tiene varias cirugías programadas en un solo día debido a compromisos laborales. Se menciona una serie de interrupciones y cambios de plan, como el retraso de Hughes debido a un accidente en la autopista y la situación personal de un miembro del personal que debe atender a un familiar con un infarto. La sección termina con la preparación para la llegada de Hughes y la toma de decisiones sobre la administración de medicamentos.

10:13

🤔 Confusión y Preparación para un Procedimiento Médico

El tercer párrafo sigue la llegada de Jane Hughes al hospital y las acciones del personal médico para prepararse para su procedimiento. Se destaca la interacción entre los médicos y el personal de enfermería, así como la preocupación de Hughes por su hijo después de un incidente en el camino al hospital. Se menciona la llegada de Dr. Robinson para ayudar con el procedimiento y se describe la preparación del Dr. Campbell para recibir a Hughes. Se destaca la importancia de revisar los resultados de sangre y el consentimiento del paciente antes de proceder con el tratamiento.

15:13

😱 Error de Administración de Medicamentos con Consecuencias Fatales

El cuarto párrafo narra un trágico error médico donde se inyecta incorrectamente un medicamento en la médula espinal de un paciente. Se describe la confusión y la prisa en el proceso de preparación para el procedimiento, lo que lleva a una serie de malentendidos y omisiones. El error se produce cuando se inyecta vincristina en lugar de metotrexato, lo que resulta en daños graves y potencialmente letales para la paciente. Se sugiere que este tipo de error puede ser evitado con un enfoque más cuidadoso y una mejor comunicación entre el personal médico.

20:14

🔍 Análisis de un Error Médico para Prevenir Futuros Accidentes

El último párrafo se enfoca en la importancia del análisis de errores médicos para prevenir futuros accidentes. Se argumenta que, en lugar de culpar a individuos por errores, es necesario examinar los sistemas y procesos que podrían haber contribuido al error.

Highlights

The National Health Service in the UK prioritizes patient safety and has recognized the higher frequency of medical errors than previously realized.

Approximately 1 in every 10 patients admitted to hospital suffer from some form of medical error.

Intrathecal injection error, where a drug intended for intravenous use is mistakenly given into the spine, can lead to paralysis or death.

Worldwide, there are around 50 recorded incidents of intrathecal injection error, with potentially many more unrecorded.

The concept of 'error trap' is introduced, where common causes may lead to similar errors in different circumstances.

The World Alliance for Patient Safety aims to share the UK's experience to improve global healthcare safety.

The importance of analyzing errors without blaming individuals to prevent future occurrences is emphasized.

The film discusses the role of strengthening systems to reduce the impact of errors in healthcare.

A scenario involving Jane Hughes, who is scheduled for two procedures on the same day, is presented to illustrate the complexities of medical care.

Communication errors and misunderstandings among staff are highlighted as potential contributors to medical mistakes.

The transcript describes a situation where a patient's delay in arrival impacts the workflow and creates pressure on staff.

The role of personal recommendations in the hiring of medical staff, and the trust placed in their competence, is discussed.

The impact of personal emergencies on healthcare professionals and their ability to provide care is portrayed.

The film presents a case where a doctor covering for another mistakenly administers the wrong medication, leading to a critical error.

The importance of checking and double-checking procedures to prevent medical errors is underscored.

The film concludes by emphasizing the need to review cases carefully to identify systemic factors contributing to errors.

The discussion encourages addressing risks to ensure the safe care of future patients rather than focusing solely on individual blame.

Transcripts

play00:00

the National Health Service in the

play00:02

United Kingdom was one of the first

play00:04

healthcare systems in the world to give

play00:06

priority to patient safety the work done

play00:09

in the UK over the last few years has

play00:11

involved taking account of the things

play00:13

that go wrong in health care the

play00:15

frequency of medical error and unsafe

play00:17

care is much higher than we've realized

play00:19

in the past something like 1 in every 10

play00:22

patients admitted to hospital suffer

play00:24

from some form of medical error it may

play00:27

not always lead to serious harm but in

play00:29

some cases sadly it leads to major

play00:31

disability and even death one of the

play00:35

incidents we've examined in depth is the

play00:37

phenomenon of intrathecal injection

play00:39

error this is where a drug intended for

play00:42

use intravenously is given instead into

play00:46

the spine mistakenly the patient then

play00:49

experiences paralysis and even death

play00:52

when we've analysed these incidents in

play00:55

death we've spotted all sorts of errors

play00:57

and weaknesses in the system which

play00:58

provoke unsafe care to be given by

play01:02

analysing these and by learning from

play01:04

them we've tried to work out the ways in

play01:06

which this error can be prevented in the

play01:08

future they're around 50 recorded

play01:11

incidents around the world of

play01:13

intrathecal injection error many more

play01:16

may not even have been recorded from the

play01:19

incidents we're aware of so far we know

play01:22

that they often occur in similar

play01:24

circumstances to different people at

play01:27

different times and even in different

play01:28

places experts call this situation an

play01:32

error trap there's a common cause and

play01:35

probably a common solution with this

play01:38

film the World Alliance for patient

play01:39

safety is making the experience of the

play01:42

United Kingdom available worldwide we

play01:45

hope that by studying this scenario and

play01:47

discussing it afterwards you'll be able

play01:49

to see the many ways in which unsafe

play01:52

systems can provoke unsafe care by

play01:56

generalizing the experience of this

play01:58

particular incident we hope that you'll

play02:00

be able to see the ways in which

play02:02

strengthening systems play a role in

play02:04

reducing the impact of error this can

play02:07

help make health care even safer in the

play02:09

future

play18:03

play18:15

well then sorry to hold you up you can't

play18:20

have finished already

play18:21

yeah well I've gotta make a trick sake

play18:26

so what have you given her and someone

play18:40

call dr. Monroe please

play19:13

you

play19:20

the film you've just seen provides a

play19:23

shocking example of how a series of

play19:25

errors can lead to catastrophic harm to

play19:27

a patient the first question you might

play19:30

like to ask is who was responsible for

play19:33

this tragic outcome the most obvious

play19:36

answer may be dr. Campbell he mistakenly

play19:39

injected vincristine into the patient's

play19:42

spine however I want you to consider a

play19:45

far more critical question why did dr.

play19:48

Campbell find himself in such a position

play19:50

sitting in front of a patient with an

play19:53

open spinal needle in their back

play19:54

having been handed the incorrect and

play19:57

potentially lethal drug in reality dr.

play20:01

Campbell's error was the final act in a

play20:04

chain of events each of which had it

play20:06

been identified at the time may well

play20:09

have prevented this tragic outcome it's

play20:12

therefore important to carefully review

play20:14

cases such as this as much as possible

play20:16

we need to do this without blaming the

play20:19

individuals involved that's not to say

play20:22

that individuals should not be held

play20:24

accountable for their actions however

play20:26

although apportioning blame may be

play20:28

emotionally satisfying it's likely to

play20:31

drive problems underground and impede an

play20:34

honest and far-reaching understanding of

play20:36

the risks we need to address these risks

play20:40

to ensure the safe care of future

play20:42

patients let's return to the film and

play20:45

identify some of the factors that played

play20:48

a part in this error
