  • Programme World Health Organization Country: Switzerland COME Topic Area: Error Identifi Cation, Analysis, Reporting, Correction
    Conference Program March 18-22, 2013 Monte Verità - Ascona, Switzerland 1 COME 2013 Contributors Organized by: Hosted by: In association with: Supported by: Welcome to the COME 2013 conference Dear colleagues, After almost a year of extensive planning, I am excited to fi nally welcome you to the COME 2013 conference! As you can see in the program, I have organized the conference into three thematic sections in an attempt to capture all nuances of our research: (1) Error prevention and intervention, (2) Error identifi cation, reporting, analysis, and correction, and (3) Error disclosure. I cordially welcome Kaveh Shojania, Julius Pham, and Albert Wu, who are the keynote speakers for each of these thematic sections. Furthermore, I am pleased to welcome 17 additional prominent scholars and personalities who are contributing their expertise to COME 2013. The ultimate goal of this grant-funded convention is to identify a common interdisciplinary and international denominator in our research agendas, and to build bridges to join our future research efforts. On the last day of the conference, the invited experts will meet to brainstorm ways to manifest the conference discussions in a collaborative product. We received a considerable number of abstract submissions from all over the world for presentation at the COME 2013 conference. The submissions entered a double-blinded peer review, and the top papers were selected for oral presentation in the afternoons of each respective thematic section. I encourage everyone to attend these exciting panels, as they demonstrate the most recent research developments in the fi eld across a variety of disciplinary and geographic areas.

ISCOME particularly thanks Tommaso Bellandi, Riccardo Tartaglia, Elena Beleffi, Giulio Toccafondi and Sara Albolino for their outstanding support. In addition, the following organizations are supporting ISCOME 2015 as patrons: 15-16 JUNE MONTECATINI TERME (ITALY) WELCOME TO THE ISCOME 2015 CONFERENCE Dear delegates, It is my pleasure to welcome you to the ISCOME 2015 conference in Montecatini Terme. For this year’s meeting, ISCOME has chosen the theme “The Golden Bridge: Communication and Patient Safety.” I would like to take a minute to reflect on this theme in light of the current state of affairs and the broad knowledge that we have accumulated in the field of patient safety over the past few years. Among numerous renowned speakers at this year’s conference, we have the honor to host and welcome a key figure in patient safety who many consider the “founding parent” of the patient safety discipline, Sir Liam Donaldson, who states in his plenary abstract that “despite a commitment to providing safe care becoming a declared priority in almost all healthcare systems of the world over the last decade, true progress in reducing the burden of avoidable harm has been very disappointing.” One of the key problems Sir Liam will highlight in his ISCOME 2015 plenary address is “weak communication at all levels.” Underlining this notion, the literature has been consistently pointing at communication as one of the main contributing factors to patient safety events.
