Preferred term
contextual error
Definition
- Overlooking contextual information in the process of medical decision making can have predictable and avoidable adverse effects as significant as those that result from overlooking biomedical signs of a pathophysiologic condition. The failure, for instance, to recognize that a patient is not able to take a medication correctly (e.g., because of cognitive disabilities or cost) may have the same consequences as the failure to prescribe the medication correctly.
