BACKGROUND: Wrong-site surgery (WSS) is a critical but preventable medical error, often resulting in severe patient harm and substantial financial costs. While protocols exist to reduce wrong-site surgery, underreporting and inconsistent documentatio...
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have the potential to revolutionise healthcare delivery but require classification and monitoring of patient safety risks. To address this need, we developed and evaluated a preliminary classificat...
The last few years have seen a boom in the popularity of artificial intelligence (AI) around the world, and the health care sector has not been immune from what has been perceived by some as a revolutionary technology. Although AI has been around for...
Clinical reasoning has been characterized as being an essential aspect of being a physician. Despite this, clinical reasoning has a variety of definitions and medical error, which is often attributed to clinical reasoning, has been reported to be a l...
