Design to Survive
“Offers a foundation for both providers and consumers to find the balance, and move to a world from provider-centered care to patient-centered care.” —Stefan Gravenstein, MD, MPH, Professor of Medicine, Case Western Reserve University The US spends the most in the world on health care and research, yet our outcomes are among the worst in industrialized nations.

Through colorful analogies, stories from families and top doctors, and ...

Patient Safety in Surgery
In general, surgeons strive to achieve excellent results and ideal patient outcomes, however, this noble task is frequently failed. For patients, surgical complications are analogous to “friendly fire” in wartime. Both scenarios imply that harm is unintentionally done by somebody whose aim was to help. Interestingly, adverse events resulting from surgical interventions are more frequently related to system errors and a communication breakdown among providers, rather than to the imminent threat of the surgical blade “gone wrong”. Patient Safety in Surgery aims to increase the safety and quality of care for patients undergoing surgical procedures in all fields of surgery. Patient Safety in Surgery, covers all aspects related to patient safety in surgery, including pertinent issues of interest to surgeons, medical trainees (students, residents, and fellows), nurses, anaesthesiologists, patients, patient families, advocacy groups, and medicolegal experts.
