Abstract Introduction Reducing the global prevalence of severe, avoidable medication-related harm (MRH) by 50% by the end of 2022 is the WHO’s third global patient safety challenge [1]. MRH is reported frequently in the academic literature, with increasing age being a key risk factor. The WHO have highlighted the need to improve public health literacy and knowledge about medications. Little is known about the frequency and nature of Irish newspaper reports about MRH. This study sought to address this gap and to examine reporting during the calendar years 2019 and 2009. Methods In this mixed-methods study, LexisNexis® [2], an online newspaper archive database, was searched for newspaper articles reporting on MRH, published in the Republic of Ireland during the calendar years 2019 and 2009. The search strategy focussed on “medication” AND “harm” AND “patient”. Quantitative data extraction aimed to describe the frequency (by count of articles) of reporting of MRH and the nature by describing the publishing newspaper titles and the reported details of: drug class(es), demographics (age or life stage, gender) of those experiencing harm and the severity of harm. Qualitatively, a systematic content analysis, using inductive coding is ongoing and will be reported separately. Research ethics committee approval for this study is not required because this is an analysis of material in the public domain. Results In total, 7098 newspaper articles were identified through database searching for 2019 (n=3217) and 2009 (n=3881). To date, 54% (3867: n=3217, 45% 2019, n=650, 9% 2009) of these were screened, of which 63 newspaper articles (n=44 2019, n=19 2009) were included and quantitative data were extracted. Within these 63 articles, 71 cases of individual people experiencing MRH were reported (52 in 2019 and 19 in 2009). The newspapers most commonly reporting MRH were Irish Daily Mail (31/63: 27 in 2019 and 4 in 2009) and Irish Times (17/63:9 in 2019 and 8 in 2009). Drug classes most frequently reported as causing MRH were central nervous system drugs (antiepileptics n=10, opioid analgesics n=5, antidepressants n=9, and anxiolytics n=1), cancer chemotherapy (23 cases) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (n=3). MRH was reported as being fatal (13 /71:8 in 2019 and 5 in 2009) and non-fatal (58/71), with seven cases (5 in 2019 and 2 in 2009) of permanent harm. Among the 71 individual cases of MRH, the majority were adults aged 18–64 years (n=36), children (n=7), older adults (n=8), foetus (n=3) and newborn (n=1), while the remainder did not report the person’s age. Conclusion MRH is frequently reported to the public through Irish newspapers. The study is limited by focus on newsprint media with the exclusion of other forms of digital or social media and restriction to two calendar years in a single country, which likely stifles the generalisability of findings to other contexts. Future work could explore this issue across a wider range of media platforms and examine changes in reporting over time. The study findings may support an agenda to improve the general public's exposure to information and knowledge of MRH and medication safety. References 1.

Patient safety in health care remains a serious concern in Canada. Adverse events can lead to physiological and psychological complications and pose a significant economic burden on the health care system. The purpose of this descriptive qualitative study was to explore the team processes, roles and factors that underpin effective communication between team members during an OR-PACU handover. Content analysis revealed four major categories: Ownership, Distractions and Interruptions, Transfer of Information and Workflow. The results of this study, informed by the Theory of Collective Competence enhance our understanding of the OR-PACU handover and support the need for the development of a structured OR-PACU team handover process.

Despite decades of investment in patient safety, unintentional patient harm remains a major challenge in the health care industry. Peer-to-peer assessment in the nuclear industry has been shown to reduce harm. The study team’s goal was to pilot and assess the feasibility of this approach in health care. The team developed tools and piloted a peer-to-peer assessment at 2 academic hospitals: Massachusetts General Hospital and Johns Hopkins Hospital. The assessment evaluated both the institutions’ organizational approach to quality and safety as well as their approach to reducing 2 specific areas of patient harm. Site visits were completed and consisted of semistructured interviews with institutional leaders and clinical staff as well as direct patient observations using audit tools. Reports with recommendations were well received and each institution has developed improvement plans. The study team believes that peer-to-peer assessment in health care has promise and warrants consideration for wider adoption.

The purpose of this study is to investigate outdoor play experiences of preschool children in Turkey and to compare the experiences of these children with previous generation. The sample of the study consists of 398 parents with children aged 3-6 years old attending to a pre-school education institution in the province of Adana, a city located in the south of Turkey. The questionnaire of “the parents and children’s outdoor play experiences”, which was based on the study of Clements (2004) was adapted by the researchers and was used as the data collection tool. While the quantitative data were analysed through frequency and percentage, the qualitative data were analysed by means of content analysis. Results revealed that today’s children got involved in outdoor play activities significantly less than their parents did. Health conditions, safety concern, lack of environmental opportunities and use of technological device (computer, television, tablet pc etc.) were reported as the main reasons of the findings in the present study by parents. The results show similarity with the related literature.
