title = "Risk Identification Practice in Patient Safety Context",
abstract = "Risk identification has gained an increased interest in healthcare to improve patient safety and quality within the scope of risk management. While past studies evaluated the evolvement of the risk management practice in healthcare in general, they also suggested that healthcare can learn and adapt from other safety-critical industries, such as aviation, chemical, nuclear and others. In this study, we particularly reviewed the current risk identification practice in patient safety context. Moreover, we compared healthcare with other industries to shed light on what can particularly be learned on risk identification to accelerate improvements in patient safety and enhance quality of care in healthcare delivery.",
