Indeks : p.1347 - 1402 Keeping patients safe ranks among the top concerns in health care and medication errors continue as one of the greatest threats to patient safety. Preventing such erros has taken especially high priority since 1999, when the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released its unsettling report "To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System." The report revealed that medical errors injure 770,000 persons each year, at an annual cost of .6 million per hospital. Since that report, all sectors of the healthcare industry have put error reduction strategies and technologies into high gear, reevaluating processes and strengthening checks and balances. This book has emphasized safety. For this edition, the safety spotlight shines even brighter: Boxed warnings now appear within monographs; new icons point out hazardous and high-alert drugs; and a new safety insert explains how to handle hazardous drugs safely.
