Identified clinical issue
Why are errors still prevent in the modern medical environment?
As a clinical issue, it is important to ask why nurses find themselves making errors yet they know how precious life is?
Errors are prevalent is medical institutions where prescriptions is done wrongly, administration of medicine to the wrong patients or even using the right medicine to the right person.
Therefore, why is it that nurses are not able to eliminate these errors and exhibit operational excellence?
To learn answers to these question, it was necessary to select article that assess common factors that increase medical errors.
Use of keywords
To mine these articles from the library database, I had to use different keywords surrounding my clinical issue.
To retrieve any fist article, I used obvious keyword, which are errors in nursing.
From this keywords, I was able to retrieve different research article and my selected article fit my search purpose.
This was the keyword that is used for my second article.
From the available articles, I selected to be particular in selection of tis article. That is why I ended up selecting hospital based research article.
Use of keywords
Selection of my third article was a little bit different.
I used a different combination of keywords to retrieve this article.
In this case, in my search I was more oriented on the effects suffered due to nursing error.
Therefore, I used ‘effects of nursing errors’ as my keywords to retrieve the research article.
To retrieve the fourth article was based on an obvious keyword search on nursing errors.
However, I went deep into details to focus on population demographics and how they are affected by nursing errors.
Research articles used
The first article that I used more a more general approach of nursing errors (Matthew E. Hirschtritt, Steven Chan, Wilson O. Ly, Pharm).
I preferred to use this research article to act as a development of understanding what is meant by nursing errors.
In this case, the article introduced scenarios where nursing errors are manifested.
In this case, the article started by errors manifested among outpatients especially when a new method off prescribing medicine is used.
Identification of the second article was to aid on perspective that nurses have on nursing errors (Midwifery Journal, 2018).
Research articles used
The third article was based on nature of errors that are manifested among nurses.
To identify these research article, I based my focus to identify the repetitive errors among nurses.
Therefore, this was on identification of reasons why these errors appears to be repetitive (Risk Management Health Policy, 2013).
To go more into details, I based on search on demographic characteristics.
In this case, I identified a research article that was more oriented on how demographic characteristics suffer nursing errors (International Journal for Quality in Health Care, 2010).
