The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) report “Diagnostic Errors in the Emergency Department” generated significant mass media interest with negative implications for the safety of contemporary emergency care. The assumptions and methodology underlying this report are problematic, while multiple ongoing efforts to improve the quality and quantity of diagnostic research are missed, neglected, or ignored. The AHRQ report identifies reasonable target diseases for targeting diagnostic quality improvement efforts, as well as viable methods by which to measure any initiatives impact on diagnostic error. We note additional opportunities to improve the status quo by funding emergency department-based diagnostic research and healthcare system-level patient safety research and highlighting innovative approaches to diagnostic science within emergency medicine. |
