This root cause analysis summarizes a sentinel event that occurred at Nightingale Community Hospital involving the discharge of a 3-year-old patient, Tina, to her father instead of her mother who had full custody. The summary identified communication breakdowns between registration, pre-op, OR, recovery, and discharge nursing staff that failed to convey the mother's instructions and custody information. To address this, the root cause analysis recommends Nightingale implement a formal handoff procedure involving all departments to improve information sharing and ensure proper discharge of patients according to any special instructions. The effectiveness of the new procedure will be measured by analyzing communication across departments for patients requiring special discharge instructions.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

take safety precautions to negate
these incidents from happening.
Discuss these.
• “What if the fire had happened
during the middle of the night?
