Treatment Harms in Paediatric Primary Care
The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiology in children of harms detectable from general practice records, and to identify risk factors. The SHARP study examined 9076 patient records from 44 general practices in New Zealand, with an enrolled population of 210,559 patients. "Harm" was defined as disease, injury, disability, suffering, and death, arising from the health system. The age group studied was ≤20 years of age. There were 193 h…
Medication risk management and health equity in New Zealand general practice
This analysis of data arising from a general practice electronic alert system in New Zealand found clinicians typically took action on those alerts. However, clinicians appear to take less action for women and Māori and Pasifika patients. Use of a targeted alert system has the potential to mitigate risk from medication-related harm. Recognising clinician biases may improve the equitability of health care provision
