OvidPPV - Abstract: Anesthesia & Analgesia, Volume Publish Ahead of Print() February 13, 2013 p The Association Between Frequency of Self-Reported Medical Errors and Anesthesia Trainee Supervision: A Survey of United States Anesthesiology Residents-in-Training.

CONCLUSIONS:
Anesthesiology trainees who reported a greater incidence of medical errors with negative consequences to patients and drug errors also reported lower scores for supervision by faculty. Our findings suggest that further studies of the association between supervision and patient safety are warranted.
