ABSTRACT
Abstract

Introduction:

Patient safety includes monitoring, analysis, and proposed actions for the prevention of reportable events with unwanted effects (REUE).

Objective:

To estimate the incidence, preventability, severity, and contributing factors of REUEs in patients admitted to the surgery service. Materials and

methods:

Prospective cohort study in patients with at least 12hours of hospitalization in the surgical services of a university hospital in Bogotá, Colombia. Random sampling was used and the sample size was 200 subjects. Sociodemographic and baseline clinical variables were evaluated. We estimated the presence of REUE detection events, their preventability and severity. The analysis of the contributing factors was done using the London protocol.

Results:

A total of 106 women (52.47%) and 96 men (47.53%) were included; the median age was 51.93 years (range 18-93); 60% had at least 1 comorbidity measured by the Charlson index and 25.74% had 3 or more. Of the participants, 28.21% presented at least 1 detection event, the incidence of REUEs was 11.8%, and 75% of them were classified as preventable while 75% were serious events. The main contributing factors were patient-related 58.33%, related to scheduled tasks and clinical context 50.00%, and work team-related factors 37.50%.

Conclusion:

The incidence, preventability, and severity of REUE are similar to those reported in the literature. The analysis of the contributing factors shows areas that are susceptible to intervention and can be considered as opportunities for improvement.
RESUMEN
Resumen

Introducción:

La seguridad del paciente incluye la vigilancia, análisis y la propuesta de acciones para la prevención de eventos reportables con efectos no deseados (EREND).

Objetivo:

Estimar la incidencia, preventibilidad, severidad y factores contribuyentes de los EREND en pacientes hospitalizados en el servicio de cirugía. Materiales y

métodos:

Estudio de cohorte prospectiva en pacientes con al menos 12 horas de hospitalización en los servicios quirúrgicos de un hospital universitario en Bogotá, Colombia. Muestreo aleatorio. Tamaño muestral 200 sujetos. Se evaluaron las variables sociodemográficas y clínicas basales. Se estimó la presencia de eventos de detección, de EREND, si eran prevenibles y su severidad. El análisis de los factores contribuyentes se hizo mediante el protocolo de Londres.

Resultados:

Se incluyeron 106 mujeres (52.47%) y 96 hombres (47.53%); la edad mediana fue 51.93 años (rango 18-93). El 60% tuvo al menos una comorbilidad medida por el índice de Charlson y el 25.74% tuvo 3 o más. El 28.21% de los participantes presentaron al menos un evento de detección, la incidencia de EREND fue 11.8% y el 75% de estos fueron calificados como prevenibles y 75% fueron eventos serios. Los principales factores contribuyentes fueron del paciente 58.33%, relacionados con tareas programadas y contexto clínico 50.00% y factores del equipo de trabajo 37.50%.

Conclusiones:

La incidencia, evitabilidad y severidad de los EREND del estudio se encuentran dentro de las reportadas en la literatura, el análisis los factores contribuyentes presenta elementos que son susceptibles de intervención y pueden ser considerados como oportunidades de mejora.
