Reflexión crítica sobre el abordaje actual del evento adverso en Colombia

Patient safety is a topic of growing interest in health care, and to discuss it
in health services or within the academy, mentioned the influence of science
concepts of industrial safety, so nonspecific used in high-risk activities such as
air transport, among others. But the reality is that many of these concepts have
insufficient adaptation in practice in the first instance, maybe due to ignorance
of technical concepts that are involved in the provision of health services
because the problem has not been approached from a broad perspective,
which may require interdisciplinary and trans-disciplinary look from various
disciplines. In order to reflect on the problem above stated, will be approached
the problem from several points of view: 1) the economic sciences, 2) the
role of health and safety at work and its influence on safety patient and 3) the
vision of the concepts from the legal science by the legal implications that may
generate adverse events.
