The study was presented at the Anesthesiology 2015 meeting in California, and summarized in the <a href=\"http:\/\/news.harvard.edu\/gazette\/story\/2015\/10\/medication-errors-found-in-1-out-of-2-surgeries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Harvard Gazette<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Patients Harmed as a Result of Frequent Surgical Errors<\/h3>\n<p>The study not only found that medication errors were made 50 percent of the time, but also that one-third of those errors result in an adverse event for the patient. 30 percent of these adverse events were deemed \u201csignificant\u201d; 69 percent \u201cserious\u201d; and under two percent \u201clife-threatening.\u201d Further, nearly 80 percent of errors that were observed in the study were concluded to be preventable.<\/p>\n<p>The errors that were observed were common medication errors, including incorrect labeling of drugs,\u00a0 failing to attend to a problem indicated by a patient\u2019s symptoms\/vital signs, incorrectly documenting patient or drug information, and dosage errors.<\/p>\n<h3>Incorrect Dosage<\/h3>\n<p>M\u00eame si un patient se voit prescrire ou donner le bon m\u00e9dicament, il est possible qu&#039;il re\u00e7oive la mauvaise dose. Cela peut se produire dans les m\u00e9dicaments d\u00e9livr\u00e9s sur ordonnance si un m\u00e9decin, une infirmi\u00e8re ou un pharmacien administre ou dispense la mauvaise dose ou donne \u00e0 un patient des instructions incorrectes sur la dose \u00e0 prendre par lui-m\u00eame. Avec les m\u00e9dicaments en vente libre, il est possible que des instructions peu claires ou incorrectes sur l&#039;emballage entra\u00eenent une dose incorrecte. Trop ou trop peu d&#039;un m\u00e9dicament sur ordonnance ou en vente libre peut s&#039;av\u00e9rer nocif pour un patient, entra\u00eenant des effets secondaires graves ou une condition non am\u00e9lior\u00e9e.<\/p>\n<h3>When a Medication Error During Surgery Leads to Harm<\/h3>\n<p>When a preventable medication error during surgery leads to patient harm, the affected patient has the right to take action.
