Background: Fostering the understanding of the relationship between the prevalence of adverse events (AEP), the patient safety culture of healthcare professionals (PSC) and patient safety perception (PSP) could be an important step to operationalizing patient safety through an integration of different perspectives. Objective: To assess the relationship between AE Prevalence, Patient Safety Culture and Patient Safety Perception. Method: Cross-sectional, ex post facto comparative study on a single sample of patients. The prevalence and severity of adverse events were measured through a review of medical records (using the Modular Review Form (MRF2). Healthcare professional patient safety culture was determined using the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC) and patient perception of safety through the Hospital Care Safety Perceptions Questionnaire (HCSPQ). Correlation tests were used to compare the three dimensions. Population: 556 medical records and patients were studied for the prevalence and patient safety perception study, and 397 of the healthcare providers involved in the care of these patients were surveyed for the patient safety culture study, at 2 public and 2 private hospitals. Results: An inverse association was observed between AE prevalence and its severity and Patient Safety Culture Index (rho=-0.8) and Patient Safety Perception Index (rho=-0.6). No association was identified between Patient Safety Culture and Patient Safety Perception (rho=0.0001). No statistical differences were identified by hospital type. Conclusions: The joint analysis of AEP, PSC and PSP, in the same sample, offers an interesting and useful perspective on the associations between the variables studied; no correlation pattern was observed between the variables.

Abstract Background The intensive care units are a high-risk environments for the occurrence of adverse events with serious consequences. The development of patient safety culture is a strategic focus to prevent these adverse events and improve patient safety and healthcare quality. This study aimed to assess patient safety culture in Tunisian intensive care units and to determine its associated factors. Methods It is a multicenter, descriptive cross-sectional study, among healthcare professionals of the intensive care units in the Tunisian center. The data collection was spread over a period of 2 months (October-November 2017). The measuring instrument used is the validated French version of the Hospital Survey On Patient Safety Culture questionnaire. Data entry and analysis was carried out by the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 20.0) and Epi Info 6.04. Chi-square test was used to explore factors associated with patient safety culture. Results A total of 404 professionals participated in the study with a participation rate of 81.94%, spread over 10 hospitals and 18 units. All dimensions were to be improved. The overall perception of safety was 32.35%. The most developed dimension was teamwork within units with a score of 47.87% and the least developed dimension was the non-punitive response to error (18.6%). The patient safety culture was significantly more developed in private hospitals in seven of the 10 dimensions. Participants working in small units had a significantly higher patient safety culture. It has been shown that when workload is reduced the patient safety culture was significantly increased. Conclusions This study has shown that the patient safety culture still needs to be improved and allowed a clearer view of the safety aspects requiring special attention. Thus, improving patient safety culture. by implementing the quality management and error reporting systems could contribute to enhance the quality of healthcare provided to patients. Key messages The culture of culpability is the main weakness in the study.

The quality of health services is the main focus in health service facilities, especially hospitals. A patient safety culture can improve quality and patient safety. Nurse clinical leadership was identified as one of the supporting factors for the successful application of a patient safety culture. This study aims to analyze the relationship between clinical leadership of nurses and the application of a patient safety culture at Nurul Hasanah Hospital. This type of research is descriptive correlational analytic with cross sectional approach.The population in this study were all nurses at Nurul Hasanah Hospital with a total sampling technique of 62 nurses. The results showed that most of the respondents with good clinical leadership (53.2%), most of the application of a good patient safety culture (66.1%) and there was a significant relationship between the clinical leadership of nurses and the application of a patient safety culture (p-value = 0.043). So it can be concluded that the application of a good patient safety culture can be realized by the optimal clinical leadership abilities of nurses. Therefore, the support of the hospital managerial is very important to support the clinical leadership competence of nurses in realizing the achievement of a patient safety culture through both formal and non-formal education.

Nurses Perceptions

This study aims to examine the associations between nurses’ perceptions of patient safety culture, patient safety competency, and adverse events. Using convenience sampling, we conducted a cross-sectional study from February to May 2018 in two university hospitals. Furthermore, we performed multiple logistic regression to examine associations between patient safety culture, patient safety competency, and adverse events. Higher mean scores for “communication openness” in patient safety culture were significantly correlated with lower rates for pressure ulcers and falls; furthermore, higher mean scores for “working in teams with other health professionals” in patient safety competency were significantly correlated with reductions in ventilator-associated pneumonia. We recommend that a well-structured hospital culture emphasizing patient safety and continuation of in-service education programs for nurses to provide high-quality, clinically safe care is required. Moreover, further research is required to identify interventions to improve patient safety culture and competency and reduce the occurrence of adverse events.

Abstract Background Although the emergency departments (EDs) are the front line of the public health system, they are considered high-risk environments because of the shocking frequency of adverse events, within. Developing safety culture among EDs professionals, as a strategic focus, remains a priority. The purpose of this study is to measure safety culture in EDs and to determine its associated factors. Methods This is a cross-sectional and multicenter study, conducted among professionals from all the EDs of public and private healthcare institutions in central Tunisia. It was conducted from June to September 2017. The instrument tool used was the self-administered Hospital Survey On Patient Safety Culture questionnaire translated and validated by the CCECQA. Data entry and analysis were performed using SPSS 20.0 and Epi info 6. Also, ethical considerations were taken into account. Results In total, the study included 442 participants from 12 ED, with a participation rate of 80.35%. All the ten dimensions of safety culture were all to be improved. As for 'teamwork within units', it scored the highest with 46%, however, the lowest scores were attributed to 'the frequency of reported adverse events' (19.6%) followed by 'the non-punitive response to error' (19.8%). Private EDs have shown significantly higher scores regarding nine safety culture dimensions. Also, the size of the hospital was significantly associated with all dimensions of the safety culture. Conclusions This study has shown that the level of safety culture needs to be improved in public and private EDs and also underlines the importance of developing the safety culture and the implementation of safety and quality management systems. Key messages Patient safety culture is to be improved in Tunisian emergencies, although it is significantly more developed in private settings. A punitive culture still reigns in Tunisian healthcare context.
