Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 June 2016
Abstract
Errors occur frequently in healthcare and can adversely affect outcomes. This prospective study demonstrates that pediatric consultants can detect a broad range of errors in the course of routine work. Many of these errors have the potential to cause harm and can be corrected by the intervention of an infectious diseases consultant.
