Patient safety is a global public health issue.Based on the system engineering initiative to patient safety(SEIPS)and guided by the high reliability organization theory,the theoretical framework of patient safety management was constructed.The framework included five key elements:people,organization,technology/tool,task,and environ-ment;10 common scenarios that could lead to patient safety issues;tripartite outcomes for patients,doctors and nurses,and hospitals;and five core principles of focusing on errors,comprehensive reflection,process optimization,manage-ment feedback,and innovative change.The theoretical framework of patient safety management can provide a basis for patient safety management in China,provide support for human factors and ergonomics,and have a certain significance to promote the research and practice of patient safety management.
