Knowledge Mobilization Tool (KMT)

Recherchez des incidents médicamenteux publiées par les bulletins ISMP Canada.

Welcome to the ISMP Canada Medication Incident Analysis Knowledge Mobilization Tool (KMT). The KMT is an educational tool providing healthcare practitioners with relevant, context-specific information at the point of conducting medication incident analyses or performing quality improvement initiatives. Users can search for medication incident analyses and learning, using variables, such as, drug name, type of error, stage in the medication-use process, and more. The search conducted by the KMT will retrieve from the ISMP Canada database of medication incident analyses and generate a report containing relevant results in three categories: (1) Published Incidents; (2) Contributing Factors; and (3) Published Recommendations.

The KMT enables you to find previous incident analyses and recommendations that ISMP Canada has identified from medication incident reporting by Canadians and healthcare professionals. The context-specific search algorithm makes it easy to find what is available in the wealth of medication incident analyses and recommendations that ISMP Canada has published and disseminated. The KMT facilitates shared learning from previous medication incidents in a novel approach by providing information at the point of quality improvement to help drive decision-making and advance safe medication use in the healthcare setting.

The quantity of relevant information will grow as medication incidents continue to be reported and analyzed; the KMT will help make the shared learning from medication incidents searchable and accessible. Medication safety will continue to be a priority in healthcare settings and the KMT is a key resource to facilitate and support healthcare practitioners to become proactive about it.
