3. Multilevel Framework of Patient Safety Research
Measuring Patient Safety Research
Introduction
• Effective management of patient safety in healthcare requires:
1. an understanding of the causes of adverse events and related outcomes
2. a capacity to measure adverse events and their causes as well as related outcomes at different levels (individual, unit, organization, industry, national, international)
• Measurement of industry safety status is achieved by a range of methods based on key performance indicators for risk factors and safety events as well as leading indicators for safety (including causes like cultural factors)
Objectives
1. To propose a causal framework for patient safety outcomes
2. To review possible methods for the relevant variables in each component of the framework with particular reference to acute hospitals
Framing Patient Safety Research
Examples of Industry Models for Safety Research:
1) ‘Swiss Cheese’ model of accident causation (Reason, 1997)

Outcomes
Individual Differences
• Based on the causal chain and different levels of analysis (i.e., individual, team, unit, and organisational) proposed by industrial and patient safety models
• Applies within an organisation even though external factors such as government and regulators responsibilities exist outside an organisation

• Wide range of questionnaires including instruments measuring Safety Culture Safety improvement requires a culture of the healthcare system that is
not regarded as a potential risk factor threatening the patient

Organizational Factors: include stressors on the system Available resources (e.g., staffing, equipment) Responsibilities of the senior management (e.g., setting standards and goals within the organisation)
Unit Management: Wide range of behaviours that influence outcomes (e.g., planning, delegating, scheduling, providing training and supervision, leadership, communication, decision making)
Worker Behaviours: Reporting at unit / team level Safety participation / compliance at individual level Non-technical skills (e.g., teamwork, speaking up)
Outcomes: Wide range of outcomes affecting the patient (e.g., infections, surgical incidents, adverse drug events) and the worker (e.g., injuries)
Individual Differences: possible mediators e.g., motivation, knowledge, fatigue, burnout
