Abstract
Patient safety is a global concern since many events are linked to human error. Healthcare facilities have implemented technological processes and devices to improve patient safety and to reduce sentinel events. Yet, there is a flipside. These systems can have the opposite effect when applied without consideration of human factors.

The flipside of implementing hi-tech devices to improve patient safety: QI "gone bad"
Washington, DC, USA
Patient safety is a global concern since many events are linked to human error. Healthcare facilities have implemented technological processes and devices to improve patient safety and to reduce sentinel events. Yet, there is a flipside. These systems can have the opposite effect when applied without consideration of human factors.
