BMJ Open, 7(2), Article e013786. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2016-013786

Introduction: Most patient safety research has focused on specialist-care settings where there is an appreciation of the frequency and causes of medical errors, and the resulting burden of adverse events. There have, however, been few large-scale rob... Read More about Understanding the epidemiology of avoidable significant harm in primary care: protocol for a retrospective cross-sectional study.

An automated software system to promote anticoagulation and reduce stroke risk: cluster-randomized controlled trial (2017)
Journal Article
Holt, T. A., Dalton, A., Marshall, T., Fay, M., Qureshi, N., Kirkpatrick, S., Hislop, J., Lasserson, D., Kearley, K., Mollison, J., Yu, L.-M., Hobbs, F. R., & Fitzmaurice, D. (2017).
