摘要
Objectives Adverse events are common occurrences in hospitals that detract from quality of care. There are few data on errors in otolaryngology (ENT) and even fewer data comparing ENT to other services. Methods We retrospectively reviewed adverse event data collected across a regional hospital network from July 2014 to August 2017. We examined categories of adverse events that occurred most commonly in ENT and compared the number of adverse events reported in ENT to those reported across all other departments. Descriptive analysis and the pairedttest were used to analyze the data. Results Two hundred ninety-one adverse events were reported in ENT departments during the period studied compared to 58,219 events reported across all other specialties. In ENT, the most commonly reported adverse events occurred in the perioperative setting, followed by issues regarding equipment and medical devices and, lastly, airway management. Across all other departments, the most common categories included medication and fluid errors, falls, and safety and security events. ENT departments had significantly higher proportions of perioperative and airway management errors and significantly lower proportions of events related to diagnosis and treatment (P = .004), falls (P < .001), lab results and specimens (P = .001), medication and fluids (P < .001), and safety and security (P < .001). Conclusion Perioperative and airway management errors occur with a statistically higher frequency in ENT compared to other in-patient and out-patient departments across hospitals. It is important to analyze adverse event reporting in surgical specialties to ensure the development of appropriate quality initiatives. Level of Evidence 4Laryngoscope, 2020
