In addition to the impact on patients and their relatives, these errors cost the NHS millions of pounds annually.<\/p>\n<p>The causes of medication errors have been studied intensely over decades, and various strategies implemented to try and mitigate them. Though issues such as communication failure and time pressures are factors in many errors, the issues most commonly identified as leading to errors are distractions and interruptions.<\/p>\n<p>As nurses, all of us have experienced distractions and interruptions at work \u2013 whether from phone calls, colleagues, call bells, patients or relatives &#8211; whilst administering medicines. These interruptions do not simply slow down the process of administration: by breaking concentration and requiring nurses to repeatedly reengage, interruptions and distractions increase the risk of errors being made (<a href=\"https:\/\/jamanetwork.com\/journals\/jamainternalmedicine\/fullarticle\/415843\">Westbrook\u00a0<em>et al<\/em>, 2010<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1485 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/ebn\/files\/2018\/08\/Do-not-disturb-300x180.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/ebn\/files\/2018\/08\/Do-not-disturb-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/ebn\/files\/2018\/08\/Do-not-disturb-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/ebn\/files\/2018\/08\/Do-not-disturb.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/ebn\/files\/2018\/08\/Do-not-disturb-640x384.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Knowledge of the fact that interruptions and distractions increase the risk of errors have led to them becoming the focus of interventions designed to increase patient safety. Innovations such as \u2018do not disturb\u2019 tabards\/sashes being worn, allocation of staff to deal with non-medicine-related tasks, or isolated drug preparation areas have been piloted and implemented with varying levels of success (<a href=\"https:\/\/qualitysafety.bmj.com\/content\/23\/5\/414\">Raban &amp; Westbrook, 2014<\/a>). Some of these interventions take their inspiration from the airline industry, where the dangers of distraction and interruption on the flight deck were tackled through the introduction of the \u2018sterile cockpit\u2019 rule, in which non-essential activities are prohibited during critical times during flight (e.g. take-off and landing).<\/p>\n<p>Though organisational efforts to prevent distraction and interruption are crucial, nurses also need to develop personal approaches to deal with them. Previous work has highlighted how some nurses are able to develop sophisticated \u2018interruption handling strategies\u2019 that enable them to block or mediate any distractions, and maintain focus on their primary task (<a href=\"https:\/\/qualitysafety.bmj.com\/content\/21\/11\/912\">Colligan &amp; Bass, 2012<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>As a professional group, nurses are integral to the different stages of medication management and therefore play a crucial role in the prevention of errors. To do so, nurses need to implement a range of organisational and personal strategies to help reduce the frequency and impact of interruptions. From a research perspective, more work is required to identify the most effective interventions to reduce and manage interruptions as part of the battle against medication errors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Colligan\u00a0L,\u00a0Bass\u00a0EJ (2012) Interruption handling strategies during paediatric medication administration <em>BMJ Quality and Safety\u00a0<\/em>21<strong>:<\/strong>912-917.<\/p>\n<p>Elliott R, <em>et al <\/em>(2018)<em>Prevalence and economic burden of medication errors in the NHS in England.<\/em>Available from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eepru.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/eepru-report-medication-error-feb-2018.pdf\">http:\/\/www.eepru.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/eepru-report-medication-error-feb-2018.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Raban\u00a0MZ,\u00a0Westbrook\u00a0JI (2014) Are interventions to reduce interruptions and errors during medication administration effective?: a systematic review <em>BMJ Quality and Safety\u00a0<\/em>23<strong>:<\/strong>414-421.<\/p>\n<p>Westbrook JI, <em>et al\u00a0<\/em>(2010).
