The potential risks to patient safety in a primary care setting are different than the risks to patient safety in an acute care setting. The main differences arise from the organisational structures of primary care delivery and the greater involvement of patients in their care. To account for these differences, we present the Patient Safety in Primary Care Framework to conceptualise the sources of risk to patient safety.

Observational Trial

Purpose To determine the percentage of patients who maintain a therapeutic INR (international normalized ratio) when presenting for their first INR follow-up in the primary care setting after hospital discharge. Methods Prospective observational trial enrolling patients newly initiated on warfarin. Results Data for 35 patients were collected. Fifty-one percent of patients were therapeutic at their first follow-up lab visit with 23% subtherapeutic and 26% supratherapeutic. Conclusion A low percentage of patients were therapeutic and more intervention is necessary in the immediate post-discharge time.
