Exploring ways to improve patient safety and quality of care
The Medical Quality and Patient Safety Lab, part of the Department of Patient Safety at the University Hospital, studies how to improve patient safety and the quality of care.
Its work includes developing a scoring system that evaluates incident reports numerically.
Through joint research, the lab is also involved in developing an education program to train patient safety managers and in measuring its effects.
Key terms
- Incident report
- A record in which staff report events that occurred in a clinical setting
- Patient safety manager
- A role responsible for patient safety in healthcare. Staff other than physicians and dentists, such as nurses and pharmacists, can also hold this position

*Illustrative imageAnalysis of Incident Reports
The lab develops a scoring system that expresses errors numerically, based on the semantic features of incident reports. It is also building a mechanism to express severity numerically.
*Illustrative imageTraining of Patient Safety Managers
The lab develops an education program for patient safety managers through joint research. It measures the level of risk at participating facilities before and after the program to examine its effects.
