channel 9 story

Hi guys

Just seen the story on ch9

In WA , 12,000 epidurals per year
about 250-300 have adverse outcomes
The consultant interviewed stated that the error rate is higher at teaching hospitals as the novices are learning on real patients as they go

Do the maths for you own states and imagine even a 50% reduction in errors.

How much for a simulator, about 80k or so?

Is there any intelligent life out there....maybe we'll find out!

Cheers
