Resilience Engineering: Concepts and Precepts

Resilience Engineering: Concepts and Precepts

2006 | Hollnagel, E; Woods, D; Leveson, N
The book "Improving Patient Care: The Implementation of Change in Clinical Practice" by R Grol, M Wensing, and M Eccles, edited by Elsevier in 2005, addresses the challenges of implementing change in clinical practice. The authors provide a comprehensive literature review on behavior change across various disciplines and present a new model for implementing guidelines or practices. This model emphasizes the importance of starting with a clear goal, developing targeted proposals, analyzing performance, designing measurement strategies, testing the implementation plan, and evaluating its effectiveness. The book includes 13 boxes in a flow chart to address potential contingencies and provides a roadmap for moving from initial success to the development of evidence-based guidelines. However, the authors do not test the model in real-world settings or compare it with existing models, which is a concern for some readers. Despite this, the book is highly recommended for students, researchers, clinicians, and policymakers interested in implementing change in clinical practice. "Resilience Engineering: Concepts and Precepts," edited by E Hollnagel, D Woods, and N Leveson, published in 2006, explores the concept of resilience in complex systems, particularly in healthcare. The book is based on research from the Three Mile Island incident and European "work ecology" studies. It introduces the idea of resilience as a dynamic system property, focusing on the ability of a system to achieve its intended purpose rather than the reliability of individual components. The book challenges traditional safety approaches and provides a framework for understanding and improving safety in complex systems. While the book assumes a certain level of knowledge about safety in complex systems, it offers valuable insights and references for further exploration. The principles developed in the book may be unfamiliar to those in patient safety, but they can lead to greater understanding and improvement in healthcare systems. Clinical Evidence, an evidence-based journal, is seeking new contributors and peer reviewers in various clinical areas, including pregnancy and childbirth, endocrine disorders, palliative care, and tropical diseases. Contributors are expected to select epidemiologically sound studies, write structured texts, and update the content annually. Peer reviewers are asked to assess the clinical relevance, validity, and accessibility of specific topics within the journal. Both roles require experience in evidence-based medicine and a commitment to maintaining high standards.
