Survey shows working time directive may reduce errors
Junior doctors who are in posts that comply with working time restrictions designated by the European Working Time Directive (EWTD) were less likely to report errors than those who were not, a survey from the Postgraduate Medical Education and Training Board reveals.
An analysis of the annual survey of trainers and trainees, published last week at the board’s annual conference, shows that 12% of trainees in an EWTD compliant emergency medicine post had reported an error, compared with 17% of those in a non-compliant post. Similarly high levels of error reporting occurred across other specialties, say the authors of the analysis, reports BMJ Careers.
