Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the relationship between patient safety climate, quality of care, and intention of nursing professionals to remain in their job. METHODS A cross-sectional study was carried out in a teaching hospital in Brazil wherein nursing professionals were surveyed. The Brazilian version of the Patient Safety Climate in Healthcare Organizations tool was applied to measure the patient safety climate. Spearman correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression models were applied for the analysis. RESULTS A high percentage of problematic response was observed for most dimensions, except for fear of shame. Quality of care resulted in a strong correlation with organizational resources for safety and with overall emphasis on patient safety, and the nurse-perceived staffing adequacy was strongly correlated with organizational resources for safety. The multiple linear regression model showed higher scores in quality of care in dimensions related to organizational, work unit, and interpersonal aspects as well as in the adequacy of the number of professionals. A higher score in intention to stay in one's job was also found in the dimensions of fear of blame and punishment, provision of safe care, and adequacy of the number of professionals. CONCLUSIONS The organizational and work unit aspects can lead to a better perception of the quality of care. Improving interpersonal relationships and increasing the number of professionals on staff were found to increase nurses' intention to remain in their jobs. Assessing a hospital's patient safety climate will enable improvement in the provision of safe and harm-free health care assistance.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to investigate the potential impact of the Target Management Card on patient safety in the emergency department. Patients and Methods A mixed method design was developed, combining a one-group pretest-posttest design with a qualitative study. Target Management Cards were formulated for 32 emergency nurse practitioners and focus group interviews were conducted after the intervention. Wilcoxon's signed rank test was used to compare pre-test and post-test scores. The interview data were subject to content analysis. Results After developing the Target Management Card, there were significant improvements in safety behaviors (Z = 4.709, p < 0.01) and perception of patient safety (Z = 4.257, p < 0.01) among emergency nurse practitioners. The nurses in the focus group interviews agreed that the Target Management Card could improve patient safety by warning and supervising nursing work in the emergency department, promoting a positive change in nurses' attitudes and behaviors toward patient safety. Conclusion Our study found that nurses and nursing managers jointly formulating Target Management Cards in emergency departments significantly enhances patient safety.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide guidelines to define the place of human factors in the management of critical situations in anaesthesia and critical care. DESIGN A committee of nineteen experts from the SFAR and GFHS learned societies was set up. A policy of declaration of links of interest was applied and respected throughout the guideline-producing process. Likewise, the committee did not benefit from any funding from a company marketing a health product (drug or medical device). The committee followed the GRADE® method (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) to assess the quality of the evidence on which the recommendations were based. METHODS We aimed to formulate recommendations according to the GRADE® methodology for four different fields: 1/ communication, 2/ organisation, 3/ working environment and 4/ training. Each question was formulated according to the PICO format (Patients, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome). The literature review and recommendations were formulated according to the GRADE® methodology. RESULTS The experts' synthesis work and application of the GRADE® method resulted in 21 recommendations. Since the GRADE® method could not be applied in its entirety to all the questions, the guidelines used the SFAR "Recommendations for Professional Practice" A means of secured communication (RPP) format and the recommendations were formulated as expert opinions. CONCLUSION Based on strong agreement between experts, we were able to produce 21 recommendations to guide human factors in critical situations.

Han Y, Kim JS, Seo Y. Cross-Sectional Study on Patient Safety Culture, Patient Safety Competency, and Adverse Events. West J Nurs Res 2019; 42:32-40.

Abstract
This study aims to examine the associations between nurses’ perceptions of patient safety culture, patient safety competency, and adverse events. Using convenience sampling, we conducted a cross-sectional study from February to May 2018 in two university hospitals. Furthermore, we performed multiple logistic regression to examine associations between patient safety culture, patient safety competency, and adverse events. Higher mean scores for “communication openness” in patient safety culture were significantly correlated with lower rates for pressure ulcers and falls; furthermore, higher mean scores for “working in teams with other health professionals” in patient safety competency were significantly correlated with reductions in ventilator-associated pneumonia. We recommend that a well-structured hospital culture emphasizing patient safety and continuation of in-service education programs for nurses to provide high-quality, clinically safe care is required. Moreover, further research is required to identify interventions to improve patient safety culture and competency and reduce the occurrence of adverse events.
