Kerala, the southern Indian state boasts one of the best standard of
living in the country. After the successful literacy movement, the state achieved
many standard of living indexes comparable with some of the European countries.
But what about health care ?
Most of the common people still rely on small to medium hospital for
common ailments. Many questions have been raised recently about the
quality of healthcare being delivered. Set aside all the cases like
unwanted surgeries, medical tests etc being conducted in some hospitals.
Medical error is one area, where there has been little statistical information
collected or even discussed.
Based on WHO, medical errors is one of the top 10 killers. Call it the law of
averages or blame human errors, one in 10 hospital admissions leads to an adverse
event and one in 300 admissions in death. Some of the common causes include,
unnecessary surgery, medication errors, errors in hospitals, infections in hospitals,
non-error adverse effects of medications etc.
