The same system problems persist, as shown by inquiry after inquiry (Travaglia & Braithwaite eg. Bristol, Mid-Staffordshire, Morecambe Bay, NSW) While efforts to improve patient safety have proliferated during the past decade, progress Foreign Body Left during Procedure is also decreasing slightly, but this indicator toward improvement has been frustratingly has been found to include many cases which are not related to patient safety. slow.
