Episode two – Omission bias

from Safety and Quality in Action Hosted by Clinical Excellence Commission

This is the second episode in our season on diagnostic error featuring Dr Matt Smith and Dr Melanie Berry in conversation with Kate Christopher and Ryan Thomas. In these four episodes, the doctors share their experiences and insights on correct and timely diagnoses. In the second episode of this series, the hosts introduce a discussion on omission bias, whereby a patient without a working diagnosis is more vulnerable to diagnostic error. The episode explores tools the doctors would use to reduce the likelihood of diagnostic error in hypothetical scenarios. The Safety and Quality in Action podcast series aims to explore the experiences and insights from leaders in safety and quality. We hope you continue listening to our safety and quality conversations featuring clinicians sharing their journey and their learnings.
