World Patient Safety Day: Prevalence and consequences of Medical Errors in the ICU

WHO's World Patient Safety Day (WPSD) for 2022 aims to raise global awareness of "Medication Safety" and address the problem of medication errors, the most common adverse event in hospitals, accounting for one-third of all adverse events, peaking at 38% when considering intensive care units (ICUs) alone. To mark WPSD, the ESICM released a series of videos to raise awareness among intensivists worldwide of this global issue and the strategies to maximise patient safety. Topics include medical errors in the ICU and, in general, how to monitor patient safety in the ICU and include the perspective of families. #WeAreICU #TogetherICU #IntensiveCare #WorldPatientSafetyDay #PatientSafety #ICU
