Identification of patient information corruption in the intensive care unit: Using a scoring tool to direct quality improvements in handover
Critical Care Medicine, 10/21/09
Pickering BW et al. – When asked to recall clinical information discussed at handover, medical members of the intensive care unit team provide data that are significantly corrupted compared with the medical record. Low subjective clinical judgment scores are significant associated with low handover scores. The handover/clinical intention scores may, therefore, be useful screening tools for intensive care unit system vulnerability to medical error.
