Dsigning Out Medical Error DOME



The Problem

Aims



The ProblemDOME from DOME project on Vimeo.

One in ten hospital patients in the UK suffers unintended harm as a result of medical error - a key contributing factor is that clinical processes continue to evolve but the design of much ward-based equipment remains largely unchanged.

Aims

The Designing Out Medical Error (DOME) project aimed to better understand and map healthcare processes on surgical wards, establishing an evidence base to design equipment and products which better supports these processes and therefore reduce instances of medical error.
