BACKGROUND Bar code technology has decreased transcription errors in many healthcare applications. However, we have found that linear bar code identification methods are not failsafe. In this study, we sought to identify the sources of bar code decoding errors that generated incorrect patient identifiers when bar codes were scanned for point-of-care glucose testing and to develop solutions to p...

Research on spreadsheet errors is substantial, compelling, and unanimous. It has three simple conclusions. The first is that spreadsheet errors are rare on a per-cell basis, but in large programs, at least one incorrect bottom-line value is very likely to be present. The second is that errors are extremely difficult to detect and correct. The third is that spreadsheet developers and corporation...

We present a novel data-driven approach for detecting and correcting errors in text databases. We focus on information that was accidentally entered in an incorrect column. Unlike machine-learning approaches to data cleaning that assume the database cells to contain atomic or numeric content, our method takes into account substrings of textual cells, and treats error detection and correction as...

BACKGROUND Studies suggest that residents tend to accept diagnostic suggestions, which could lead to diagnostic errors if the suggestion is incorrect. Those studies did not take into account that physicians in clinical practice will mainly encounter correct suggestions. The present study investigated residents' diagnostic performance if they would first encounter a number of correct suggestions...
