Abstract

Aim

This study aimed to systematically review empirical evidence on factors influencing nurses to report medication errors and near misses.

Background

There is underreporting of medication errors among nurses, in particular among novice and beginner nurses. To improve quality of care, factors influencing the reporting of medication errors and near misses should be documented.

Method

A systematic mixed methods review was conducted. CINAHL, Cochrane Collaboration, Embase, Medline, PsycINFO and Web of Science databases were explored and analysed from December 1990 to December 2023. Two reviewers independently selected and extracted data using a standardized data extraction grid. Data were analysed using thematic analysis based on the adapted theory of planned behaviour.

Results

Forty-two studies met the eligibility criteria. Principal factors influencing the reporting of medication errors and near misses among nurses were associated with perceived behavioural control, subjective norm and attitude. Few studies examined factors influencing reporting medication errors and near misses among novice and beginner nurses, and sociodemographic and professional factors.

Conclusion

To understand factors influencing reporting of medication errors and near misses, further studies should be conducted to investigate sociodemographic and professional factors.

影响护士报告用药错误和险情的因素：系统性混合方法综述。

目的：本研究旨在系统回顾影响护士报告用药错误和差错的因素的经验证据：背景：护士对用药错误的报告不足，尤其是新手护士。为提高护理质量，应记录影响护士报告用药错误和差错的因素：方法：采用混合方法进行了系统回顾。对 1990 年 12 月至 2023 年 12 月期间的 CINAHL、Cochrane Collaboration、Embase、Medline、PsycINFO 和 Web of Science 数据库进行了检索和分析。两名审稿人使用标准化数据提取网格独立选择和提取数据。根据经过调整的计划行为理论，采用专题分析法对数据进行了分析：42项研究符合资格标准。影响护士报告用药错误和差错的主要因素与感知行为控制、主观规范和态度有关。很少有研究探讨了影响新手和初级护士报告用药错误和差错的因素，以及社会人口和专业因素：为了解影响报告用药错误和差错的因素，应进一步研究社会人口和专业因素。
