- Medical errors have become the third leading cause of death in the U.S., largely due to human errors and communication breakdowns, highlighting the need for effective debriefing practices in healthcare settings.
- A study in a community hospital involving 130 healthcare providers found that 50% rarely engage in debriefing after critical events, while only 15.4% do so frequently; most debriefing is led by attending physicians.
- Despite a strong recognition of the importance of debriefing, with 90% of participants expressing a need for training, only 39% have received formal training on this essential practice.
Unlabelled: We aimed to study the utility of the FRAX tool in predicting fractures in patient's receiving a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Our results indicate that the FRAX tool has modest fracture predictive ability in patients greater than 50 years of age at the time of HSCT.
Purpose: Identifying patients at high risk of osteoporotic fractures following HSCT is challenging.
