The phrase medical harm or iatrogenic illness can be seen as somewhat paradoxical in our expectation that medicine will benefit rather than harm us. You might argue that it is impossible to separate the chance of good from the risk of ill. But iatrogenic illness has come to be recognized as a significant source of patient risk. It has been proven that medical errors rank as an urgent widespread healthcare problem.

When errors occur the common reaction is to blame someone. However, when looking at things at a scrutinizing level, more often than not, errors happens due to the convergence of multiple contributing factors and not just due to any one single event. Blaming individuals does not usually solve the problem and the same type of error is likely to recur.

Errors resulting in injury are sometimes described as preventable adverse events, defined as, not due to the patients underlying condition. People, especially in the western societies, place great value in the belief that they are free agents, the captains of their own fate. Therefore medical mistakes have traditionally been blamed on individuals. However, accidents are generally the outcome of a chain of events, and faulty system design either induces errors or makes them difficult to detect. Systems that rely on error-free human performance are destined to fail. Errors may or may not result in adverse effects but can if analyzed and properly assessed lead to error reduction and thereby creating a safer health care system.

Current concepts in modern risk management suggest that accidents in complex systems result mainly from human interface problems. Bringing safety into the process of care is probably a more effective way to reduce errors than to blame individuals.

All educational efforts are created in collaboration with international renowned and well respected educators. The program framework follows international standards and in collaboration with international renowned institutions. The initial set-up for each course will be with an entire international faculty and include a “train the trainer” function were local professionals participate and learn how the course is designed and executed. Future courses will then be performed in collaboration with local professionals participating as educators. The faculty will however always and in every course have at least one international educator who will secure that the quality of the course is continued. Live surgical demonstrations, broadcasted lectures, tele-mentoring and video conferencing are some of the channels we use to present our teachings besides the conventional lectures.
