A systems analysis approach to error in medicine7 and other similar industries like aviation and nuclear power has made great strides in error reduction and improved safety.8,9,10 Unfortunately, this highly successful approach is thwarted by a common theme in current legal and traditional medical perspectives—individual shame and blame.
