Handoff strategies in settings with high consequences for failure: lessons for health care operations
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To describe strategies employed during handoffs in four settings with high consequences for failure. ANALYSIS: of observational data for evidence of use of 21 handoff strategies. SETTING: NASA Johnson Space Center in Texas, nuclear power generation plants in Canada, a railroad dispatch center in the United States, and an ambulance dispatch center in Toronto. MAIN MEASURE: Evidence of 21 handoff strategies from observations and interviews. RESULTS: Nineteen of 21 strategies were used in at least one domain, on at least an 'as needed' basis. CONCLUSIONS: An understanding of how handoffs are conducted in settings with high consequences for failure can jumpstart endeavors to modify handoffs to improve patient safety.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
