The Surgical Mistake and the Bad Decision That Followed: Dr. David Mayer
CEO of the Patient Safety Movement Foundation
Show notes: https://www.markgraban.com/mistake70
My guest for Episode #70 is Dr. David B. Mayer. He is both the Chief Executive Officer of the Patient Safety Movement Foundation and Executive Director of MedStar Institute for Quality and Safety.
In today's episode, Dave shares a compelling story from his time as an anesthesia resident. What happened after the surgeon cut into the wrong side of the patient? Was the coverup worse than the crime? What did Dave learn from this incident and the pressure to keep quiet? How has this inspired him to be a patient safety leader?
Questions and topics include:
- Lectures now about how to respond to harm… how do the students react?
1) Committee to talk about the moon shot
2) National patient safety authority like NHTSA or aviation
3) Incentives better aligned around patient safety & quality
4) Transparency
