2010. Association of Interruptions With an Increased Risk and Severity of Medication Administration Errors. Archives of Internal Medicine. 170:683-690.
Background Interruptions have been implicated as a cause of clinical errors, yet, to our knowledge, no empirical studies of this relationship exist. We tested the hypothesis that interruptions during medication administration increase errors.
