@JHospMedicine A1: Errors are more likely to occur during periods of high cognitive workload. Especially as hospitalists, we’re constantly multitasking to get through the day. #JHMChat

Check out our September #JHMChat about hospitalist productivity and we get into the discussion of safe staffing #callback #JHMChat
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn
@JHospMedicine A1: Teams don't know each other & don't communicate well, chaotic/stressful environment, multiple distractions, no clear leader. #JHMChat
Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles
@matthewdmchugh @JHospMedicine @PennNursing @Penn_CHOPR In my experience, errors will occur in environments where people don't feel psychologically safe and supported. If ppl don't feel comfortable asking for help, bad things will happen #JHMChat

Matthew McHugh @matthewdmchugh
@gopiastik @JHospMedicine Agree @gopiastik -- the 'work' of clinical care is hard enough. Adding the complexity of an often poorly managed environment adds to the cognitive load. #JHMChat
Annie Massart @Annie_Massart_
@JHospMedicine A1. Mistakes can be more common when folks are overworked, short-staffed, rushed, or subjected to new/unique/extra stress in the workplace. Like when there's a new confusing EMR. Not that I know what that's like at all 😬 #JHMChat

@JHospMedicine #JHMChat A1: Others have said, but staffing is so key, in All team aspects. Docs/APPs, nursing, MAs, pharmacy, RTs…when people juggle too many patients, that’s when stuff falls through the cracks. Admin/extramedical burden weighs heavy here, too.

@JHospMedicine A1. Moral distress is a major weight holding back good care and job satisfaction. Constantly knowing what 'should' be done but not always being able to do it because of issues you can't fix as an individual #JHMChat

@JHospMedicine A2: The right answer or the real answer? It depends on the environment. Will I be taken seriously with attempts to collaboratively understand what happened to prevent reoccurrence? Will I be encouraged to ‘keep it quiet’? Or Will I be ‘thrown under the bus.’ #JHMChat

Charlie M. Wray, DO, MS @WrayCharles
@JHospMedicine This might sound odd - but how hard is it to report? If the bar is high (ie. 10,000 clicks) then my motivation is low. Systems need to make access to these reporting sites easy and seamless #JHMChat
Jen Readlynn, MD, FHM (she/her) @jenreadlynn
A2 #JHMChat (👈saw this done by @aoglasser before so I don't forget): I think the severity of the event and how likely it is to recur and cause harm. I definitely recognize that things are underreported but having the bandwidth and time to report every near miss is tough too.
Joe Thomas, MD @DocWithBowtie
@JHospMedicine @matthewdmchugh Ooh, you mean ACTUAL professionalism, too! Jokes aside, that definitely weighs on the mind in these situations, especially when we are at our breaking points. #JHMChat
Matthew McHugh @matthewdmchugh
A2 It should not be underestimated how hard it is, under the best circumstances, to report even near misses. Healthcare is humbling and hard and uncertain even when we get everything right #JHMChat
Maha Sulieman @MahaArhait
@JHospMedicine A2 try to understand what has led to it rather than focus on pointing fingers. Reporting system is not punitive & the goal is for this not to re- occur. It’s ok to report you missed something yourself because there is a hole in the system that resulted in this. #JHMChat

A4. What is the process of turning a "good catch" into systems change? Whose responsibility is it to lead those changes? This is why we need nurses w/ QI & #ImpSci training. Recognizing a patient care issue --> identifying solutions --> implementing & evaluating. #JHMChat

RT @NurseNikpour: A3. I have little doubt that everyone here on tonight's Twitter chat has made a medical error of some sort, and/or will make one in the future. It's one of the few universal truths in healthcare. If you expect perfection, you'll fail every time. #JHMChat

Don’t miss a chance to get your work published in @JHospMedicine! Who knows? Maybe your paper will be the topic of a #JHMChat!

Pretty much true in every human endeavor! Great insight by @Arhait #JHMChat

RT @JHospMedicine: So many #qualityimprovement initiatives stem from these good catches/ near misses We here at the Journal publish many research papers on these efforts. We would love to hear from you! Just gonna leave the author guidelines here... https://t.co/4Nco1n3n6r #JHMChat

⌛ Last few minutes left in tonight's #JHMChat. Any additional insights or final thoughts to share?

@Arhait @ToledanesGian Great point @Arhait -- And I think we can lower the threshold for doing this. Shouldnt only occur with 'big' things --Normalize #JHMChat

@JHospMedicine A4 We now have a special questionnaire that has to be answered before we enter orders for MRI. I think that process alone has stopped many unnecessary images, which then opens space for the people who really need them. #JHMChat
Jackie Nikpour, PhD, RN @NurseNikpour
A4. Are there examples of med. errors where the clinician(s) involved are PART of the team designing & implementing solutions? No doubt, clinicians feel guilty about errors. Maybe leveraging their lessons learned is a way to support clinicians & prevent similar errors. #JHMChat
Journal of Hospital Medicine @JHospMedicine
Now also wondering if systems need to do a better job of publicizing all the little changes that happen upstream, changes because someone noticed the *potential* for badness, before that badness happened... #JHMChat

@gradydoctor High value care and patient safety intertwined, we love to see it. #JHMChat
Matthew McHugh @matthewdmchugh
A4 It shouldn’t even take an error or near miss -- simply asking clinicians about all of the workarounds they need to engage to get care accomplished would be a great start. We all can probably name 10 things right now that get in the way of good safe care #JHMChat

@matthewdmchugh Great point. Near misses happen all the time & are VASTLY underreported. Why expose yourself to retaliation when an error didn't actually occur? Encouraging/incentivizing these reports is a key first step. #JHMChat

@NurseNikpour Some hospitals have RCAs or "swarms" after an event and incorporate the frontline teams, turning that moral distress into action! #JHMChat

@JHospMedicine This should be standard practice. Are there any qual studies exploring clinicians responses to these? #JHMChat

This is a good action item to take back to your hospitalists from this #JHMChat. Crowdsource the "pebbles in the shoes" -- and use it as the basis of QI projects!
