The Sax Institute is commissioning a rapid review of evidence about serious incident investigation and management. Expressions of interest close on 21 March 2019.
The review will address the following questions:

2. Which of the systems or methods outlined in Question 1 have been demonstrated to be effective to reduce patient harms?
3. Across the systems and methods identified in Question 2, what enablers or barriers have been determined to contribute to or hinder effectiveness?
A draft report is required by 14 May 2019 and a final report by 10 June 2019.
