Dear Phase 3 Students of Atılım Univ. Medical School
All medical students,
Medical residents in different branches
Allied health staff
General public and Media,
On 29th March 2024, we’ll conduct a 2 hour lecture for Phase 3 Students of Atılım Univ. Medical School with a subject of
ACCIDENTS in Medical Practice
Here is the 42 slides PDF file (5 MB) : Accidents, in Medical Practice
Some important reminders for all..
- In reality, personal elements (e.g., personalities or personal attainment) are involved in medical accidents.
- However, even when an accident appears to have been the fault of a single individual,
the cause may be in the management system of the hospital - Therefore, it is important that the person involved report the accident faithfully and
that a system capable of evaluating such incidents objectively be in continuous operation in the hospital. - When such a practice is established in a hospital, a more trusting relationship between doctors and the hospital management will be established.
- Backed up by a system such as described above, doctors can be assured of their positions and can concentrate on their own jobs.
- At the same time, they are reminded that their medical services are being monitored by a 3rd party. Such an environment should produce a change in the doctors’ attitude toward the medical care they provide. It is hoped that this change in the doctors’ attitude will result in reduced medical malpractice.
