Workshop on Consumer Engagement in Selected Patient Safety Topics

描述（由申请人提供）：美国选定患者安全主题的消费者参与研讨会建立在新的倡议和工具的基础上，使消费者成为合作伙伴，并应用这些资源来通知五个紧急的患者安全问题。这是一项研究发展活动，其研究结果将得到广泛传播。该研讨会将于2008年第一季度在伊利诺伊州芝加哥市西北纪念医院（NMH）的设施内进行。该报告由501(c)(3)组织消费者促进患者安全（CAPS）与世界卫生组织（WHO）患者为患者安全计划（PFPS）合作提交。其他召集人伙伴包括NMH和患者安全伙伴关系。讲习班的中心目标是告知五项举措，这些举措依赖于消费者与医疗保健提供者和政策制定者的接触，以获得最佳成功：(1)报告医疗事故和/或未遂事故；(2)有助于医疗系统故障的根本原因分析；(3)准备患者教育材料，支持患者教育，了解医疗安全风险和参与管理这些风险的机会；(4)将患者经验纳入研究，制定研究议程；(5)患者/消费者参与他们自己或他们所爱的人的护理计划、安全性和有效性。这五个领域的会议记录和行动计划将成为讲习班的成果。工作坊采用了一种被称为欣赏式询问（AI）的小组过程方法，旨在利用参与者过去的个人和专业成功来应对挑战并创造鼓舞人心的积极变化。人工智能搜索并建立在人们、他们的组织和周围相关世界的最佳方面，从而促进协作，振兴可能具有变革性的关系。思想领袖认为，未能让消费者参与到患者安全工作中来，是延迟该领域进展的一个因素。迄今为止，推动消费者参与安全工作的最显著因素是世界卫生组织的“患者促进患者安全”（PFPS）规划，该规划成立于2006年，是世卫组织世界患者安全联盟的一个原始行动领域。美国选定患者安全主题的消费者参与研讨会将是第一个专门关注美国患者，提供者和患者安全问题的PFPS活动。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Workshop on Consumer Engagement in Selected Patient Safety Topics in the United States builds on new initiatives and tools to engage consumers as partners and applies these resources to informing five emergent patient safety issues. This is a research development event, the findings of which will be widely disseminated. The Workshop will be conducted in Chicago, IL at Northwestern Memorial Hospital (NMH) facilities during the first quarter of 2008. This submission is made by Consumers Advancing Patient Safety (CAPS), a 501(c)(3) organization, in collaboration with the World Health Organization's (WHO) Patients for Patient Safety Program (PFPS). Other Convener partners include NMH and Partnership for Patient Safety (p4ps). The central objective of the Workshop is to inform five initiatives that depend on consumer engagement with healthcare providers and policymakers to be optimally successful: (1) Reporting medical errors and/or near misses; (2) Contributing to root cause analyses of medical system failures; (3) Preparing patient education materials and supporting patient education about healthcare safety risks and opportunities for engagement in managing those risks; (4) Incorporating patient experiences into research and formulation of research agendas; and (5) Patient/consumer engagement in the planning, safety and effectiveness of their own care or that of their loved ones. Proceedings and action plans in each of these five areas will be Workshop products. The Workshop utilizes a group process methodology known as Appreciative Inquiry (AI), designed to use participants' past personal and professional successes in addressing challenges and creating inspired, positive change. AI searches for and builds on the best in people, their organizations and the relevant world around them, thereby fostering collaboration and revitalized relationships that can be transformative. Thought leaders cite the failure to engage consumers in patient safety work as one factor in delaying progress in the field. The most notable driver of consumer engagement in safety work to date is the World Health Organization's Patients for Patient Safety (PFPS) program, established in 2006 as an original action area of the WHO's World Alliance for Patient Safety. The Workshop on Consumer Engagement in Selected Patient Safety Topics in the United States will be the first PFPS event focused specifically on patients, providers and patient safety issues in the United States.
