Cutting-edge efforts in surgical patient safety.
In October, 2015, the Surgical Outcomes Club convened a patient safety panel in Chicago, Illinois. The goal was to emphasize that patient safety efforts require a uniform, systematic, evidence-based approach. This article incorporates the major themes of the session—developing reliable measures of surgeon performance, real-world methods for continuous improvement and learning, and opportunities for incorporating the principles of implementation science into patient safety efforts.
