TI  - [Perception of safety climate in outpatient pediatric care].
PG  - 100-4
AB  - In ambulant pediatric care, patients situations are becoming increasingly 
      complex, because the lenght of hospital stay is reduced since the introduction of 
      Diagnosis Related Groups (DRG). Consequently, the patients' safety is constantly 
      becoming more important. The patients' safety is closely associated with the 
      nurses' awareness of risks and the safety climate within the institution. This 
      study is investigating how nurses of a pediatric outpatient service estimate the 
      patients' safety and how that can be optimized, if necessary. As part of a 
      cross-sectional study, a total of 106 nurses of the pediatric outpatient service 
      were interviewed with a modified German version of the "Patient Safety Climate 
      Inventory (Patientensicherheitsklima-Inventar, PaSKI)". Data was analysed by a 
      descriptive statistical method. The return rate was 80.2 percent. The results 
      show a very high awareness of patients' safety issues as well as a high level of 
      satisfaction concerning team collaboration. Both results have a positive 
      influence on the safety-climate. Problems are associated mainly with the incident 
      reporting system, e.g. with reporting critical incidents and communicating after 
      reporting. This indicates the importance of a useable incident reporting system, 
      which--in combination with staff training--may be an important step towards a 
      structured risk management. Furthermore, it clarifies the importance of 
      transparent communication after a reported incident, as also described in the 
      literature.
