Improving safety recommendations before implementation: a simulation-based event analysis to optimize interventions designed to prevent recurrence of adverse events.
Langevin M, Ward N, Fitzgibbons C, et al. Improving safety recommendations before implementation: a simulation-based event analysis to optimize interventions designed to prevent recurrence of adverse events. Simul Healthc. 2022;17(1):e51-e58. doi:10.1097/sih.0000000000000585.
Prior research has found that simulation-based event analysis (SBEA) can identify novel sources of error as well as generate creative strategies for error prevention. In this study, researchers found that simulation can optimize SBEA-generated recommendations and that it provides opportunity to test the intervention in real-life settings before widespread implementation.
