What are the causes of medical accidents?

The rules and regulations are not perfect, the division of responsibilities is not clear, and the work between departments and individuals is buck passing, resulting in medical accidents. The main causes of medical accidents are low ideological attention, non-compliance with technical operating rules and illegal operation. Mental factors, such as excessive excitement or depression of medical staff, will make it difficult to concentrate and control their attention, leading to mistakes and accidents. People with low medical technology level, lack of experience, poor technical ability and insufficient coordination ability are prone to accidents, which is particularly prominent among doctors who are studying and practicing. People with functional defects or infectious diseases, such as color blindness, are also prone to medical accidents in special posts.

It is not enough to deal with difficult or critical patients knowing that their professional level is low. However, in order to show off one's personality and show off one's ability for a while, if one acts without consulting a superior doctor and causes serious consequences, it should be classified as a liability accident. For example, a criminal who attempted to commit suicide by swallowing nails, after examination and analysis by the attending surgeon, decided that the swallowed nails were not long (one inch), not sharp and had a certain weight, and could be discharged from feces after taking the medicine. However, a doctor who just graduated from medical college and has been engaged in surgery for a short time did not listen to the guidance of his superior doctor and performed laparotomy at night without authorization. Because he was not familiar with the diagnosis of digestive tract radiology, he mistakenly thought that the nails in his stomach were actually in his small intestine. But no nails were found in the intestine during the operation; The patient denied swallowing the nail because he couldn't stand the pain of the operation and asked to stop it. The doctor slapped the patient in the face in a hurry and annoyance. After that, the patient squeaked, admitted for a while and denied for a while. The doctor was not sure about the situation, so he had to sew up the abdominal cavity and prepare for another fluoroscopy. Later, although the nail was taken with the participation of a superior doctor, it seriously polluted the patient's abdomen. Afterwards, the patient sued the doctor and asked the doctor to take full responsibility for the serious pollution of the abdominal cavity and the sequelae of intestinal adhesion.

The only purpose of surgery and examination is to cure diseases and save lives, and the only basis is the need of illness, not any other reason. We should use socialist medical ethics and medical principles to control our behavior, and we should not operate indiscriminately for our own skills.
