Improving safety for hospitalized patients: much progress but many challenges remain.
Over the past few years hospitals have made substantial progress in reducing harms. The authors review the evidence demonstrating progress and what is known about the factors contributing to progress. The authors concluded that to parallel the effort that has been made to date on hospital safety, substantial effort is needed to determine how to measure and reduce diagnostic errors and ensure that this information is integrated into practice where it will translate into meaningful benefits for patients.
