Dr. Soumar Dutta discusses various concepts related to patient safety and accident prevention. He defines key terms like incident, accident, unsafe act, and unsafe condition. Accidents can be preventable or unpreventable. The main causes of accidents according to the Heinrich Theory are unsafe acts and unsafe conditions, which account for 98% of accidents. Successful accident prevention requires identifying hazards, estimating risks, eliminating hazards where possible, using engineering controls, education and training, and enforcement of safety policies. Safety equipment alone is not enough - developing a trained, alert, and safe workforce is most important for any disaster prevention program.

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.

Global launch of the Healthy Ageing and Prevention Index 2nd wave – alongside...ILC- UK
The Healthy Ageing and Prevention Index is an online tool created by ILC that ranks countries on six metrics including, life span, health span, work span, income, environmental performance, and happiness. The Index helps us understand how well countries have adapted to longevity and inform decision makers on what must be done to maximise the economic benefits that comes with living well for longer.
Alongside the 77th World Health Assembly in Geneva on 28 May 2024, we launched the second version of our Index, allowing us to track progress and give new insights into what needs to be done to keep populations healthier for longer.
The speakers included:
Professor Orazio Schillaci, Minister of Health, Italy
Dr Hans Groth, Chairman of the Board, World Demographic & Ageing Forum
Professor Ilona Kickbusch, Founder and Chair, Global Health Centre, Geneva Graduate Institute and co-chair, World Health Summit Council

7. Incident – An incident is an undesirable occurrence that could, but usually does not,
result in a loss.
Unsafe Act – Any act on the part of a person which increased his or her chances of
having an accident
Unsafe Condition – A condition within the working environment which increases the
worker’s chances of having an accident, or which may cause impairment of health.
Hazard – Any arrangement, equipment, material, object, condition, method or
procedure capable of causing bodily harm or impairment of health or both.

8. Preventable Accident
An accident that occurred as a result
of an act or failure to act on the part
of an employee or the management
or both.
Accident – An accident is an unplanned, unforeseen and undesirable occurrence
which interrupts a normal activity, and which results in either an injury, loss of life,
damage to material, equipment or facility or any combination of these.
Unpreventable Accident
An accident which no act
whatsoever on the part of the
employee could have prevented the
injury or damages to vehicle,
equipment or property.

17. Accidents, ill health and incidents are seldom inevitable random
events. They generally arise from failures in control and often have
multiple causes.
Although the immediate cause of an event may be a human or
technical failure, such events usually arise from organizational
failings which are the responsibility of management.
Successful safety policies place heavy emphasis on achieving
effective control over both people and technology.
They aim to exploit the strengths of employees while minimizing
the influence of human limitations.
17
18. Successful accident prevention requires a
minimum of four fundamental activities
A study of all
working areas to
detect and
eliminate or
control physical
hazards which
contribute to
accidents.
A study of all
operating
methods and
practices.
Education,
instruction,
training and
discipline to
minimize human
factors which
contribute to
accidents.
Thorough
investigations of
accidents to
determine

circumstances.

22. Estimate the hazard: Risk estimation
•A measure of the probability and severity of a hazard to harm human
health, property, or the environment
•A measure of how likely harm is to occur and an indication of how
serious the harm might be
Risk 0
22
25. Hazard Control: Engineering Controls
Hazards exist in every workplace in many different forms.
Engineering controls are anything that is built or installed to separate
people from chemical, biological or physical hazards, and can include fume
hoods, biosafety cabinets, glove boxes, and blast protectors.
Engineering controls involve a physical change to the workplace itself,
rather than relying on workers' behavior or requiring workers to wear
protective clothing.
25
28. Education and Training
28
Safety education is the most effective tool in the prevention of human causes.
• Adequate instruction
• Personnel gain useful knowledge
• Develop safe attitudes
Training is an important accident prevention control; it gives each man a
personal safety tool by development in him habits of safe practice and
operation.
30. Take home message..............
• Safety Helmet is required but Positive Thoughts are important
• Safety Goggles are required but Conscious Vision is important
• Safety Hand Gloves are required but Righteous Protective Action is important
• Safety Shoes are required but Quick and Safe Steps are important means
• Safety Equipments are required but Trained, Alert & Safe Man is more
important in any Disaster Prevention programme.
