ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

The response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the approach to patient safety share three important concepts the challenges of preventing rare events, use of rules, and tolerance for uncertainty. We discuss how each of these ideas can be utilised in perioperative safety to create a high-reliability system.
