「Never Event」是指嚴重、可預防且不應在醫療機構發生的錯誤。手術部位錯誤(Wrong-site surgery)是典型的 Never Event,代表手術前核對程序完全失效,對病人造成不可逆的嚴重傷害。
A 'never event' refers to serious, preventable medical errors that should never occur in a healthcare setting, such as performing surgery on the wrong body part. Wrong-site surgery indicates a complete failure of preoperative verification protocols and can cause irreversible harm, distinguishing it from administrative delays or common medication errors.
