Human Error Annotated Bibiography
Maggie Fox informs us on the amount of deaths that arise from medical error every year in the US. Almost 4 out of 5 Americans are taking some kind of medication whether it’s over the counter or prescribed. As the article stated, almost 1.5 million Americans go through some kind of medical error a year. The article gave us an example of a newborn baby who was being treated for syphilis and was given high amounts of penicillin intravenously and died. Later it was shown that the newborn didn’t even have syphilis. This article will help us by proving our point that medical errors are one of the leading causes of preventable deaths in the US with better funding we could end this. Fox, M. (2006, July 20). Drug mistakes injure 1.5 million in U.S. every year. Reuters Health Information. < http://www.realhealthmag.com/articles/382_7685.shtml> - The article below provides guidelines on traveling the path to safer care. The article points to the lack of communication between doctors and patients as one of the contributors to medical errors. The article states that patients should bring a list of all the medications they take. Including herbs, vitamins and over the counter medications. Most people feel that it is not important to point out medication they are taking that is not prescribed. Because they don’t believe or don’t know that it can cause an interaction or hinder other medications they are on. It is also important to point out allergies or side effects one had to medicines. It is also good to understand what one’s doctor is prescribing the article states. Know what medication you are getting and how to take it and what it is for. Also, make sure you if the prescription is hand written you can read it. When also picking up the medication from the pharmacy it is good to look and ask what medication you are getting and who prescribed it. Another vital advice the article points out is to not be afraid and speak up if one has questions and concerns. This was a wonderful article that helped to point out that patients can be an active member of the health care team to help reduce medical errors and receive quality care. 20 Tips to Help Prevent Medic

Anesthesiology, 66:670-676, 1987 This was a ground-breaking paper applying principles from Perrow's "Normal Accident Theory" to human error and patient safety in anesthesiology (and by extension much of health care in general). Cooper JB, Gaba DM: A strategy for prevention of anesthetic mishaps. International Anesthesiology Clinics http://med.stanford.edu/VAsimulator/bibliography.html 27:148-152, 1989 This paper established strategies for reducing error and preventing mishaps. Different strategies were laid out for practitioners, institutions, professions, and the system as a whole. Gaba DM, Howard SK: Conference on human error in anesthesia (meeting report). Anesthesiology 75:553-554, 1991 Drs. Gaba and Howard organized the international Conference On Human Error In Anesthesia , an experts' workshop which brought together for the first time human factors experts (including David Woods) and medical personnel working on error and safety. The Conference catalyzed a number of research avenues by groups around the world. Gaba DM: Analysis of the nasa Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS) as a model for safety reporting in anesthesiology. White Paper for the Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation, 1992. This paper outlined the applicability of the NASA ASRS system model to near miss and accident reporting in anesthesiology, and by extension the rest of health care. The APSF has been working toward establishment of such a program, which has remained stalled to date due to medicolegal issues. Gaba DM: Human work environment and simulators.

KullasAbstractAs part of a larger Army Research Institute effort to survey, synthesize, and evaluate the state of the art in the area of human factors as applied to software development, a fairly extensive literature survey was conducted. This resulting bibliography contains human error citations of 478 articles or reports pertaining to the behavioral aspects of software design, programming, coding, debugging, testing, evaluation, and maintenance. Most citations are accompanied by descriptive abstracts, and all are indexed by author, publication source, institutional affiliation, and subject. To help the user unfamiliar with the area, the bibliography contains brief, human error annotated basic reference lists in the areas of software engineering, the psychology of software development, the Structured Programming Series, and the DoD software program.

Dialogue is the interactive usage of a mutually agreed language between the communicators to exchange information. However there are many problems and even barriers to successful human communication, and still more for man-computer dialogue.In the past computer ergonomics had tended to concentrate more upon hardware and environment issues, but in the last 3 to 5 years there has been grow
