Diagnostic errors harm patients. While the underlying causes of diagnostic error and the settings in which they occur are diverse, the use of a cognitive forcing function in the form of a diagnostic time-out can mitigate the risk of diagnostic error. Barriers to the implementation of diagnostic time-outs remain. In our survey of neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) providers, perceived time constraints were universally cited as a barrier. Attending neonatologists and neonatology nurse practitioners reported decreased perception of the risk of diagnostic error impacting patient outcomes, relative to the perception among neonatology fellowship trainees. Future directions include addressing concerns over the perceived time investment required for a diagnostic time-out and increasing provider appreciation of the nature and impact of diagnostic error on patient outcomes. |
