Book synopsis

Excerpt from Issues Relating to Medication Errors: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Health of the Committee on Ways and Means, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session, September 20, 1994 Chairman stark. Good morning. We will wait to see whether anyone wishes to proceed with an opening statement. We may sus pend the hearing for a moment or two. The Subcommittee on Health is meeting today on issues relating to medication errors. These errors could occur in the prescribing, the transcribing, or dispensing of medications. The errors involve administering the wrong drugs, delivering and improper dosage or prescribing an inappropriate spectrum of medication. It is not uncommon for patients to be seriously injured as a te sult of these errors. Many hospitals have established mechanisms to monitor medica tion errors, such as incidence reports; however, they typically re main within the institutions and are not available to the public. As a result, health care professionals rarely have the opportunity to learn about the mistakes that pertain to medications in order to avoid making mistakes themselves or learning from their mistakes.
