The nature of reported safety events related to care coordination in the operating room setting in a tertiary academic center

Adverse event reporting systems are important tools for identifying areas of risk and opportunities for education and improvement. Our goal was to examine the nature of perioperative incident reports related to care coordination that were filed by staff at an academic tertiary care center. In this retrospective data review, perioperative safety reports between 2015 and 2020 were analyzed. Information examined included the type of staff who initiated the report, location of the incident, type of incident and the severity level of event, including patient harm. Out of the 7827 reports evaluated, 61.2% of reports were filed by nurses, and 5.6% by physicians. We investigated one particular category called "coordination of care" and found the specific event most commonly reported was insufficient handoff (15.0%-26.9%), with severity level reported primarily being no to minor harm reaching the patient. However, communication failures were judged to be one of leading causes of inadvertent harm. It is imperative for hospital incident reporting systems to collect data on issues related to communication failures and to design interventions with the help of frontline staff to provide high quality, safe care to patients and to remain compliant with regulatory requirements and hospital policies.
