Abstract

Health care delivery continues to be unsafe despite major patient safety (PS) improvement efforts over the past decade. Medical school education plays an important role in promoting this culture during initial training. To determine undergraduate medical students' attitudes toward PS at a Tunisian medical school. We carried out a cross-sectional study among undergraduate medical students at Ibn Al Jazzar Medical School in Sousse, Tunisia, using a self-administered questionnaire inspired from the valid tool: Attitudes to Patient Safety Questionnaire (APSQ III). A total of 178 medical students responded to the questionnaire. Medical students tend to have an overall positive perceptions of PS culture with a global mean score 5.33 ± 0.5. Among the individual domains 'Working hours as a cause of error' earned the highest score (6.38 ± 1.0) followed in order by 'Team functioning' (6.24 ± 0.8), 'Error inevitability' (5.91 ± 1.0) and 'Patient involvement in reducing error' (5.50 ± 1.0). The lowest score was for 'Professional incompetence as a cause of error' (4.01 ± 1.0). A PS domain's mean scores comparison based on socio-demographic variables: gender, age, academic year and on PS training revealed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) for five PS key dimensions: ' Error reporting confidence ', ' Working hours as a cause of error ', ' Professional incompetence as a cause of error ', ' Team functioning ' and 'PS training received'. Tunisian medical students showed positive attitude towards PS. Nevermore, intensive in terms of frequency and duration sessions, based on various teaching methods may be needed to fulfill students' educational needs.

医学教育中的病人安全:突尼斯学生的态度。
尽管在过去十年中做出了重大的患者安全改善努力,但卫生保健服务仍然不安全。医学院教育在初期培训中发挥着促进这种文化的重要作用。目的探讨突尼斯某医学院本科医学生对PS的态度。我们在突尼斯苏塞Ibn Al Jazzar医学院的医科本科生中进行了一项横断面研究,使用了一份自我管理的问卷,问卷灵感来自有效工具:患者安全态度问卷(APSQ III)。共有178名医科学生回答了问卷。医学生对PS文化总体持积极态度,总体平均得分为5.33±0.5。在各个领域中,“作为错误原因的工作时间”得分最高(6.38±1.0),其次是“团队功能”(6.24±0.8),“错误必然性”(5.91±1.0)和“患者参与减少错误”(5.50±1.0)。“导致错误的专业能力不足”得分最低(4.01±1.0)。基于社会人口学变量:性别、年龄、学年和PS培训的PS域平均得分比较显示出统计学上显著的差异(p

期刊介绍: Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
