Summary

Background: The incidents related to medication are an important cause of avoidable health damage in the perioperative environment.

Objectives: Describe the incidents related to medication reported in the national communication system of incidents in anaesthesia and resuscitation in Spain (SENSAR), and their relationship with morbidity.

The researchers performed a descriptive analysis of independent variables: type of medication incident, moment in which the incident occurred, drug group involved and then a logistic regression in order to establish the relationship with the dependent variable: morbidity.
