Technology-Related Safety Event Analysis in Community Clinical Informatics: A Case Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This case study presents a process that was iteratively developed for clinical informaticians to identify, analyse, and respond to safety events related to health information technologies (HIT) in community care settings (This research was supported by the CIHR Health Systems Impact Fellowship Program. We would also like to thank Vancouver Coastal Health for their valuable contributions.). The goal was to build capacity within a clinical informatics team to integrate patient safety into their work and to help them recognize and respond to HIT-related safety events. The technology-related safety event analysis process that was ultimately developed included three key components: 1) an internal workflow to analyse voluntarily reported HIT-related safety events using a sociotechnical model, 2) safety huddles to amplify learnings from reviewed events, and 3) a cumulative analysis of all events over time to identify and respond to patterns. A systematic approach to quickly identify and understand HIT safety concerns enables informatics teams to proactively reduce risks and prevent harm.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
