“…We used a free listing method 25 based upon previous studies aimed at developing inventories of medical issues. 26, 27 The FG interview guide (Appendix 1) ensured the fidelity of the interview structure between the six groups. The literature indicates that free Listing methods are designed to capture a saturated list of responses to a single question.…”

Background There is increased recognition that patients suffer adverse events (AEs) or harm caused by treatments in dentistry, and little is known about how dental providers describe these events. Understanding how providers view AEs is essential to building a safer environment in dental practice. Methods Dental providers and domain experts were interviewed through focus groups and in-depth interviews and asked to identify the types of AEs that may occur in dental settings. Results The first order listing of the interview and focus group findings yielded 1,514 items that included both causes and AEs. 632 causes were coded into one of the eight categories of the Eindhoven classification. 882 AEs were coded into 12 categories of a newly developed dental AE classification. Inter-rater reliability was moderate among coders. The list was reanalyzed and duplicate items were removed leaving a total of 747 unique AEs and 540 causes. The most frequently identified AE types were “Aspiration/ingestion” at 14% (n=142), “Wrong-site, wrong-procedure, wrong-patient errors” at 13%, “Hard tissue damage” at 13%, and “Soft tissue damage” at 12%. Conclusions Dental providers identified a large and diverse list of AEs. These events ranged from “death due to cardiac arrest” to “jaw fatigue from lengthy procedures”. Practical Implications Identifying threats to patient safety is a key element of improving dental patient safety. An inventory of dental AEs underpins efforts to track, prevent, and mitigate these events.

“…Patient safety culture means the beliefs, values, and standards shared by professionals and that also influence their behaviors and actions 63 . In the course of this review, studies alluded to the theme 13,64,65 or used it as their central focus 47,61,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73 . Positive points were found, such has a high overall perception of patient safety; patient-centered care; the pursuit of effective and equitable care; and the value assigned to teamwork.…”

Segurança do paciente no cuidado odontológico: revisão integrativa

Resumo: Eventos adversos constituem grave problema relacionado à qualidade do cuidado de saúde. A prática odontológica, por ser eminentemente invasiva e implicar contato íntimo e rotineiro com secreções, é potencialmente propícia à ocorrência desses eventos. Diversos estudos em segurança do paciente foram desenvolvidos nas duas últimas décadas, entretanto, em maior número no ambiente hospitalar, em função de sua complexidade organizacional, gravidade de casos, diversidade e especificidade de procedimentos. O objetivo foi identificar e explorar os estudos voltados à segurança do paciente odontológico. Foi realizada revisão integrativa da literatura com consulta ao MEDLINE via PubMed, Scopus via Portal Capes e ao Portal Regional da Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde, utilizando-se os termos segurança do paciente e odontologia nos idiomas inglês, espanhol e português a partir de 2000. Utilizou-se o ciclo de pesquisa em segurança do paciente, proposto pela Organização Mundial da Saúde para classificar os estudos incluídos. Foram analisados 91 artigos. Os eventos adversos mais comuns foram relacionados às alergias, às infecções, ao atraso ou falha de diagnóstico e ao erro da técnica. Medidas para mitigar o problema apontaram para a necessidade de melhoria da comunicação, incentivo à notificação e procura por instrumentos para auxiliar a gestão do cuidado. Constatou-se carência de estudos de implementação e avaliação de impacto das propostas de melhoria. A Odontologia evoluiu no campo da segurança do paciente, mas ainda está aquém de transpor resultados para a prática, sendo importante envidar esforços para prevenir os eventos adversos nesta área.
