ABSTRACT
This case study presents a process that was iteratively developed for clinical informaticians to identify, analyse, and respond to safety events related to health information technologies (HIT) in community care settings (This research was supported by the CIHR Health Systems Impact Fellowship Program. We would also like to thank Vancouver Coastal Health for their valuable contributions.). The goal was to build capacity within a clinical informatics team to integrate patient safety into their work and to help them recognize and respond to HIT-related safety events. The technology-related safety event analysis process that was ultimately developed included three key components 1) an internal workflow to analyse voluntarily reported HIT-related safety events using a sociotechnical model, 2) safety huddles to amplify learnings from reviewed events, and 3) a cumulative analysis of all events over time to identify and respond to patterns. A systematic approach to quickly identify and understand HIT safety concerns enables informatics teams to proactively reduce risks and prevent harm.
