Nerd alert: A step-wedge randomized trial of I-PASS! Exciting b/c we teach this as a pragmatic design for QI eval where pt level RCT impossible (but rarely do it). PLOT THICKENS: suggest reading paper & editorial --> Does neg trial w stronger design negate prior studies?
"I-PASS can be readily assimilated and used by clinicians". "Inadequate handovers have devastating consequences". Some of the editorial comments of our recent Handoff trial #PedsICU @AmyStarmer @soc_arg_ped @SATIarg @ForoCS @IPASS_Institute qualitysafety.bmj.com/cgi/co…

During #PatientSafetyAwarenessWeek, the Quality Assurance and Safety team @DartmouthHitch used Muppets to have some fun getting the word out about our use of the @IPASS_Institute framework to standardize the patient handoff process. #Communication

Today is #WorldPatientSafetyDay. 134 million adverse events occur each year due to unsafe care in hospitals in low- and middle-income countries, contributing to 2.6 million deaths annually No one should be harmed in health care. 👉 bit.ly/3mwZN6P

Nurses in Pedi, PICU, Birthing Pavilion and Intensive Care Nursery began using I-PASS this week to increase the reliability of shift handoff. I-PASS reduces preventable adverse events and medical error rates without adding time to the handoff process. Go Team! @IPASS_Institute

Replying to @adrianplunkett
research shows both very important - reliable handoff requires structure and interactivity. @IPASS_Institute @IPASSHANDOFF
