ADVERSE EVENTS

Course overview

ADVERSE EVENTS (AE) FREQUENTLY OCCUR IN OUR MEDICAL SYSTEM, AND AT LEAST ONE IN TEN PATIENTS ARE AFFECTED. AN AE IS A HARMFUL AND NEGATIVE OUTCOME THAT HAPPENS WHEN A PATIENT HAS BEEN PROVIDED WITH MEDICAL CARE. THIS ACTIVITY REVIEWS THE EVALUATION AND MANAGEMENT OF AN ADVERSE EVENT AND HIGHLIGHTS THE ROLE OF INTERPROFESSIONAL TEAM MEMBERS IN COLLABORATING TO EVALUATE AND MANAGE THE ADVERSE EVENT.
