Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of reducing interns' work hours on serious medical errors in intensive care units.
Christopher P. Landrigan,Jeffrey M. Rothschild,John W. Cronin,Rainu Kaushal,Elisabeth Burdick,Joel T. Katz,Craig M. Lilly,Peter Stone,Steven W. Lockley,David W. Bates,Charles A. Czeisler +10 more
TL;DR: Eliminating extended work shifts and reducing the number of hours interns work per week can reduce serious medical errors in the intensive care unit.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Critical Care Safety Study: The incidence and nature of adverse events and serious medical errors in intensive care.
Jeffrey M. Rothschild,Christopher P. Landrigan,John W. Cronin,Rainu Kaushal,Steven W. Lockley,Elisabeth Burdick,Peter Stone,Craig M. Lilly,Joel T. Katz,Charles A. Czeisler,David W. Bates +10 more
TL;DR: Adverse events and serious errors involving critically ill patients were common and often potentially life-threatening, and failure to carry out intended treatment correctly was the leading category.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring and using light in the melanopsin age
Robert J. Lucas,Stuart N. Peirson,David M. Berson,Timothy M. Brown,Howard M. Cooper,Charles A. Czeisler,Mariana G. Figueiro,Paul D. Gamlin,Steven W. Lockley,John O’Hagan,Luke L. A. Price,Ignacio Provencio,Debra J. Skene,George C. Brainard +13 more
TL;DR: A new light-measurement strategy taking account of the complex photoreceptive inputs to these non-visual responses is proposed for use by researchers, and simple suggestions for artificial/architectural lighting are provided for regulatory authorities, lighting manufacturers, designers, and engineers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Reducing Interns' Weekly Work Hours on Sleep and Attentional Failures
Steven W. Lockley,John W. Cronin,Erin E. Evans,Brian E. Cade,Clark J. Lee,Christopher P. Landrigan,Jeffrey M. Rothschild,Joel T. Katz,Craig M. Lilly,Peter Stone,Daniel Aeschbach,Charles A. Czeisler +11 more
TL;DR: Eliminating interns' extended work shifts in an intensive care unit significantly increased sleep and decreased attentional failures during night work hours.
Journal ArticleDOI
High Sensitivity of the Human Circadian Melatonin Rhythm to Resetting by Short Wavelength Light
TL;DR: It is reported here that the circadian resetting response in humans, as measured by the pineal melatonin rhythm, is also wavelength dependent, and photopic lux, the standard unit of illuminance, is inappropriate when quantifying the photic drive required to reset the human circadian pacemaker.
