Patient Safety Learning Laboratories (2019): Pursuing Safety in Diagnosis and Treatment at the Intersection of Design, Systems Engineering, and Health Services Research (R18)
This R18 Request for Application (RFA) calls for the creation and utilization of Patient Safety Learning Laboratories.
These learning laboratories are places and networks where transdisciplinary teams identify closely related threats to diagnostic or treatment efforts associated with a high burden of harm and cost.
Following a systems engineering methodology, the learning laboratories stretch professional boundaries, envision innovative designs, and take advantage of brainstorming and rapid prototyping techniques that other leading industries employ.
Promising prototypes undergo further develop-test-revise iterations, and subsequent integration as a working system.
After further improvements are made to the integrated working system, its efficacy is evaluated in a realistic simulated or clinical setting
