Is Excessive Resource Utilization an Adverse Event?
- Authors
Zapata, Josué A.; Lai, Andrew R.; Moriates, Christopher
- Abstract
The article presents the case of a 54-year-old woman with advanced multiple sclerosis to determine if the inpatient team members fulfilled their professional obligation to avoid potential harms related to excessive testing and consultation and acted as good stewards of health care resources. Topics covered include the things that the committee which assesses adverse events should do, and how overuse should be evaluated in the same way as a typical case review of adverse events.
