The economic burden of patient safety targets in acute care: a systematic review
Nicole Mittmann,Marika Koo,Nick Daneman,Andrew McDonald,Michael Baker,Anne Matlow,Murray Krahn,Kaveh G. Shojania,Edward Etchells +8 more
TL;DR: There are wide variations in the estimates of economic burden due to differences in study methods and methodologic quality, and greater attention to methodologic standards for economic evaluations in patient safety is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
