Successful implementation of effective patient safety strategies remains an organizational challenge. In this systematic review including 159 studies, the authors explored factors influencing successful implementation of three common patient safety practices: medication reconciliation, antibiotic stewardship programs, and rapid response systems. The researchers identified several common factors supporting effective implementation, including clinical competence, engagement, and organizational support. The authors suggest additional research examining continuous adaptations to address changing contexts and support sustained improvements.
