John G. Reiling President/CEO Enhancing Patient Safety and Quality: Evidence-based design meets patient safetySeptember 2009
Background – IOM Report The risk of dying as a result of medical error far surpasses the risk of dying in an airline accident. Death on domestic flights: 1 in 8,000,000 flights.
Background – IOM Report (continued) Death in hospitals from medical errors: 1 in 343 admits to 1 in 764 admits. Adverse Events in Hospitals 1 in 27 admits to 1 in 34 admits.

Human Factors/Safety in Healthcare The environment (facilities, equipment, technology) affects performance. The processes affect performance. The culture affects performance.
Human Factors/Safety in Healthcare You can design environments, culture, and processes.
Human Factors/Safety in Healthcare Focus environments, processes, and culture on safety and quality by: Minimizing risk of failure Evidence-based medicine.
What Practices Will Most Improve Safety? Evidence-based medicine meets patient safety.
Design Recommendations Latent Conditions: Noise Reduction Scalability, Adaptability, Flexibility Visibility of Patients to Staff Patients Involved with Their Care Standardization Automate Where Possible Minimize Fatigue Immediate Accessibility of Information, Close to the Point of Service Minimize Handoffs Minimize Patient Movement Communication
Lean Principles Continuous Flow Pull vs. Push Standardize Work Visual Control Proven Technology Culture of Stopping to Fix Problems Get Quality Right the First Time
Design Recommendations Active Failures Operative/Post-Op Complications/Infections Events Relating to Medication Errors Deaths of Patients in Restraints Inpatient Suicides Transfusion Related Events Correct Tube-Correct Connector-Correct Hole Patient Falls Deaths Related to Surgery at Wrong Site MRI Hazards
Process Recommendations Matrix Development (Post Learning Lab) FMEA at Each Stage of Design Patients/Families Involved in Design Process Equipment Planning Day 1 Mock-ups Day 1 Design for the Vulnerable Patient Articulate a Set of Principles for Measurement Establish a Checklist for Current/Future Design
