Abstract
Patient handover is considered to be one of the most delicate medical procedures as well as the most preventable cause of medical error. It takes place at primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare, with specificities at every level of healthcare. Improvement in the quality of patient handover is therefore essential for good medical practice. Accurate and comprehensive communication between medical staff is required for patient safety and continuous adequate healthcare. In this article, we describe recommendations for successful and efficient patient handover and highlight communication errors during the process. Special attention is given to handover of rheumatological patients and transition from pediatric to adult healthcare. Also, we emphasize the necessity of education. Medical staff should be competent in sharing and exchanging relevant information when the patient transfers to another medical care provider. Teaching communication skills has been part of undergraduate and postgraduate curriculum in medical schools. At the University of Zagreb School of Medicine we have introduced a longitudinal six-year course Fundamentals of Medical Skills where special attention is given to communication skills. Nevertheless, medical specialty training still lacks educational contents specialized in patient handover and safe patient discharge.
Abstract in Croatian
Primopredaja bolesnika smatra se jednim od najdelikatnijih postupaka u medicini i najvažnijim sprječivim uzrokom medicinske pogreške. Ovaj se proces zbiva na svim razinama zdravstvene zaštite: primarnoj, sekundarnoj i tercijarnoj, od kojih svaka ima svoje specifičnosti. Unaprjeđenje kvalitete primopredaje na svakoj razini izrazito je važno. Prikladan i precizan prijenos informacija između medicinskog osoblja nuždan je za sigurnost bolesnika i kontinuiranu zdravstvenu zaštitu. U ovom su članku opisane preporuke za uspješnu i kvalitetnu primopredaju bolesnika te su istaknute pogreške pri komunikaciji i postupku prijelaza u skrb drugom liječniku. Poseban je osvrt dan na primopredaju reumatološkog bolesnika i na prijelaz iz pedijatrijske skrbi u adultnu reumatološku skrb. Osobito je naglašena potreba poučavanja pri komunikaciji i prenošenju podataka tijekom prijelaza bolesnika od jednog liječnika drugomu, iz ustanove u ustanovu. Poučavanje komunikacijskih vještina danas se provodi na medicinskim fakultetima na diplomskoj i poslijediplomskoj razini. Na Medicinskom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Zagrebu uveli smo longitudinalni 6-godišnji predmet Temelji liječničkog umijeća u kojem studente poučavamo komunikaciji. Ipak, ističemo nedovoljan broj nastavnih sadržaja specijalističkog usavršavanja koji obuhvaćaju izobrazbu o primopredaji bolesnika i vještinama otpusta bolesnika.
