Background: Patient falls are a major problem in hospitals. The development of Patient-Centered Fall Prevention Toolkit, TIPS (Tailoring Interventions for Safety), reduced by 25% acute care hospitals leveraging health information technology to complete the 3-step fall prevention process—(1) conduct risk assessments; (2) develop tailored plans with evidence-based interventions; and (3) consistently implement plan. We learned that was most effective when patients family were engaged all 3...
Many hospital systems in the United States report injurious inpatient falls using National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators categories: None, Minor, Moderate, Major, and Death. The Major category is imprecise, including injuries ranging from a wrist fracture to potentially fatal subdural hematoma. purpose this project was refine injury classification derive valid reliable categorization types severities fall-related injuries.Based on published literature ranking fall incident reports...
Falls are a serious, persistent problem in hospitals. Ensuring that all hospital staff have adequate knowledge of how to prevent falls is the first step prevention. We identified validated fall prevention tests (FPKTs) and planned conduct systematic literature review. When review lack FPKTs, we developed evaluated FPKT, confirmed its conceptual framework, content domain, drafted test items, devised format, selected items for empirical examination, conducted psychometric evaluation. randomly...
Falls represent a persistent and costly patient safety issue. Fall TIPS (Tailored Interventions for Patient Safety) is patient-centered clinical decision-supported, fall prevention program that has led to fewer falls related injuries among hospitalized patients. We aimed identify dominant facilitators barriers adoption. This multisite qualitative study was conducted in 11 hospitals representing three academic health systems, where had been implemented at least one year. Interviews with 50...
