Risk in hospitals

Clinical risk Financial and business risk Legal risk Environmental risk Operational Risk

Legal Risk

Risk arising out of failure to comply with existing laws and regulations

PNDT, Human Organ Transplantation Act

Legal liability under the Consumer Protection Act Legal liability under the Consumer Protection Act

Environmental risk

Flood, Earthquakes and other natural disasters Security risk Fire and Electrical Safety events Hazardous Material Spillage Radiation Hazard

Operational Risk

Patient complaints –esp. unresolved Equipment failure Employee related risks

Risks employees may encounter in their jobs Ri k l b i t th k l Risks employees bring to the workplace Risks arising from inadequate nos/ skill sets

Clinical Risk Management

Clinical Risk Management (CRM) is an approach to improving the quality and safe delivery of health care by: Placing special emphasis on identifying circumstances that put patients at risk of harm, and Acting to prevent or control those risks Acting to prevent or control those risks.

Near Miss Event

It is a potential for harm or error which is intercepted prior to the completion of the incident/ event resulting in no harm to the patient Most common type of error occuring in hospitals Provides valuable learning experience Provides valuable learning experience

Sentinel Event

An unexpected incident, related to system or process deficiencies, which leads to death or major and enduring loss

  • f function for a recipient of healthcare services

Sentinel Event

Sensory, motor or psychological impairment Not present at the time the service was sought or begun Impairment unrelated to underlying condition Impairment lasts for a minimum period of two weeks Patient related events only

Sentinel Event

Surgical Events Device or Product Events Patient Protection Events Environmental Events Care Management Events Criminal Events

Risk Assessment Protocols

Clinical :

ASA score – Pre-operative evaluation of patients DVT prophylaxis: to determine which patients need DVT prophylaxis Braden Score : Identify patients at risk of developing bed sores. y p p g Revised Trauma Score : For triage in Emergency

Risk Assessment Protocols

Complete Evaluation of patient at Admission and at pre- determined intervals Identify ‘vulnerable’ Patients

At higher risk of adverse events eg. Falls With special needs eg Interpreter diet With special needs eg. Interpreter, diet

Vulnerable patients are followed up more closely

Hazard Vulnerability Analysis

HV A is a tool used to determine the probability, risk and preparedness of an organisation to a natural or manmade crisis Risk Score : Probability × risk rating Higher the score more the planning and focus required Higher the score, more the planning and focus required

  • Risk Assessment : All risks, whether resulting from accident, incident, errors or risk assessment can be evaluated

and graded. This includes near misses too.

Risk Action plan

‘Blame free’ and prompt reporting Root cause Analysis Remedial Measures to minimize the consequence of adverse event P i d f i il i k Preventive measures to reduce recurrence of similar risk Review of effectiveness

Provide education to all staff of Clinical Risk Management principles Promote a cultural change in the organisation by encouraging clinical and non clinical staff to proactively id tif t ti l i k d f ilit t d i t identify potential risks and facilitate process redesign to reduce risk Further encourage a 'just' culture where the emphasis is

  • n process and system redesign to improve safety

Employee level

Education about risk identification Standard Operating Procedures Employee safety Measures Risk reporting formats

Strategic level

Risk Management Committees – eg. Safety, Medication, Radiation Safety, Transfusion Review the risk register and the effectiveness of action to reduce and prevent risk Develop and recommend policies to reduce and prevent risk Develop and recommend policies to reduce and prevent risk
