About this title

Synopsis

Following other high-risk industries such as aviation and nuclear power, health care organizations have recently begun to pay attention to human-system interactions and how the design of systems either encourages or discourages errors. Using HFE can help diagnose and prevent adverse events, many with potentially life-threatening results. For this newly updated second edition, some of the top HFE experts in the United States and Canada tell how their organizations are deploying HFE to improve the safety and efficiency of care. Using Human Factors Engineering to Improve Patient Safety: Problem Solving on the Front Line, Second Edition shows how health care organizations are using HFE as a powerful adjunct to their patient safety efforts.
