Validity of root cause analysis in investigating adverse events in psychiatry

Validity of root cause analysis in investigating adverse events in psychiatry
Validity of root cause analysis in investigating adverse events in psychiatry
Root cause analysis (RCA), imported from high-reliability industries into health two decades ago, is the mandated methodology to investigate adverse events in most health systems. In this analysis, we argue that the validity of RCA in health and in
psychiatry must be established, given the impact of these investigations on mental health policy and practice

Abstract

Root cause analysis (RCA), imported from high-reliability industries into health two decades ago, is the mandated methodology to investigate adverse events in most health systems. In this analysis, we argue that the validity of RCA in health and in
psychiatry must be established, given the impact of these investigations on mental health policy and practice
