Unexpected Hypotensive Events during Preparatory Plasmaphereses.

volemic events during PP, an infusion of NaCl 0.9% 500 ml should be given during PP [3, 4]. If saline infusion was given after PP the loss of red cell mass with the tubing system could be reduced from 12,0 ml to 1,3 ml per donation on average [5]. However, the disadvantage of this method is that hypovolemic events cannot be prevented during PP. On the other hand, if 500 ml NaCl 0.9% is given st...

Electronic health records and adverse drug events after patient transfer.

BACKGROUND Our objective was to examine the frequencies of medication error and adverse drug events (ADEs) at the time of patient transfer in a system with an electronic health record (EHR) as compared with a system without an EHR. It was hypothesised that the frequencies of these events would be lower in the EHR system because of better information exchange across sites of care. METHODS 469 ...
