The first edition of Handbook of Human Factors and Ergonomics in
Health Care and Patient Safety took the medical and ergonomics
communities by storm with in-depth coverage of human factors and
ergonomics research, concepts, theories, models, methods, and
interventions and how they can be applied in health care. Other
books focus on particular human factors and ergonomics issues such
as human error or design of medical devices or a specific
application such as emergency medicine. This book draws on both
areas to provide a compendium of human factors and ergonomics
issues relevant to health care and patient safety. The second
edition takes a more practical approach with coverage of methods,
interventions, and applications and a greater range of domains such
as medication safety, surgery, anesthesia, and infection
prevention. New topics include: * work schedules * error recovery *
telemedicine * workflow analysis * simulation * health information
technology development and design * patient safety management
Reflecting developments and advances in the five years since the
first edition, the book explores medical technology and
telemedicine and puts a special emphasis on the contributions of
human factors and ergonomics to the improvement of patient safety
and quality of care. In order to take patient safety to the next
level, collaboration between human factors professionals and health
care providers must occur. This book brings both groups closer to
achieving that goal.
