Q-Code scope note
process of minimizing risk to a patient by developing systems to identify and analyse potential hazards to prevent accidents, injuries, and other adverse occurrences, and by attempting to handle events and incidents which do occur in such a manner that their effect and cost are minimized (adapted from MeSH, see under Risk Management)
processus mis en oeuvre pour minimiser les risques pour un patient en développant des systèmes permettant d'identifier et analyser les risques potentiels pour prévenir les accidents, les blessures, et d'autres événements indésirables.Comprends aussi la gestion d'événements et incidents de façon que que leur effet et les coûts sont réduits au minimum (adapté de MeSH, voir Gestion du risque)
Q-Code conceptual content
SALUTOGENESIS (saluto=health; genesis=origin) the origins of health compared to the origins of disease (pathogenesis). A shift from the study of relationships between stress and disease to the study of successful tension management. Health is attained through a healthy environment, balanced diet, and physical fitness as well as the fostering of coping skills, self-confidence, and self-control. .(Woncadic)
AT RISK ; characteristic of an individual or a population who because of their genetic, social, economic, cultural, or psychological circumstances or genetic background are vulnerable to a particular injury or disease (Woncadic)
ATTRIBUTABLE RISK the excess risk of disease that can be ascribed to the exposure to the risk factor, over and above that experienced by people, who are not exposed. It thus provides an estimate of the number of cases of the disease that might be prevented if exposure to the risk factor was eliminated and is useful for determining the magnitude of the public health problem posed by such exposure. (Woncadic)
Failure to Rescue, Health Care ; Inability to prevent a clinical deterioration resulting from a complication of an underlying medical condition or a complication of medical care. It implies that common risk factors for such a complication were not recognized in a timely manner or treated appropriately. (MeSH2016)
HEALTH RESOURCES/RISK BALANCE MODEL is a clinical model for general practice with SALUTOGENIC perspective and a patient-centred approach to the consultation. The model intends to to shift the attention of the GP/FP from objective risk factors to self assessed personal health resources in patients. The physician is encouraged to identify and combine the agendas of pathogenesis and risk factors with salutogenesis and health resources as well as the agendas of physician-assessment with patient-assessment. The health resources as observed by the GP/FP and the patient's self-assessed health resources are the bases of individual salutogenesis in practice. (Woncadic)
HEALTH RISK APPRAISAL method of describing an individual's chance of falling ill or dying of a specified condition.(Woncadic)
LIFETIME RISK the risk to an individual that a given health effect will occur at any time after exposure without regard for the time at which that effect occurs. (Woncadic)
RISK (Syn. hazard) the probability that a health problem will occur, e.g. that an individual will become ill or die within a stated period of time. A risk can be a 1. Relative risk: the ratio of the incidence of a health problem among those with a risk factor to the incidence in those without it, or an 2. Absolute risk: the observed or calculated probability of an event in a population under study as contrasted with the relative risk.(Woncadic)
Risk Management ; The process of minimizing risk to an organization by developing systems to identify and analyze potential hazards to prevent accidents, injuries, and other adverse occurrences, and by attempting to handle events and incidents which do occur in such a manner that their effect and cost are minimized. Effective risk management has its greatest benefits in application to insurance in order to avert or minimize financial liability. (From Slee and Slee: Health care terms, 2d ed)(MeSH)
