El error médico: una motivación y una oportunidad formativa para los residentes

Abstract

This article is part of a series of three that detail the relationship that exists between the competency domains of patient safety, clinical communication with specialized health training; as well as pointing out the synergies and the enhancing effect that exists between them through their topical aspects: the clinical error, the difficult patient and the critical incident. This article focuses on medical error, pointing out its motivating effect on the resident and how to use it formatively in real situations when things do not go well in the consultation. Because medical error is a very broad topic, this article focuses on content related to the training and motivation of residents.
