— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
近乎錯誤(Near Miss)是指錯誤已經發生,但在藥物或醫療處置進入病人體內前,被及時發現並攔截,未造成病人傷害。A 選項屬於給藥錯誤,即使未產生症狀也非近乎錯誤;D 選項為不良事件;B 選項為醫療紀錄錯誤,不屬於近乎錯誤範疇。
A near miss is defined as an error that occurs but is intercepted before it reaches the patient, thereby preventing any harm. In this scenario, the nurse identified the wrong dose and stopped it prior to administration, fitting the criteria for a near miss rather than an actual medication error or adverse event.
