Abstract

In situ simulation sessions can be useful to test a new organization and detect latent safety threats. Here we report two cases of routine in situ interprofessional simulation sessions in an intensive care unit that unexpectedly revealed latent safety threats in our emergency trolley. These latent safety threats included drug mislabeling, secondary to a recent change in stored medications. Corrective actions have been put in place. In doing so, we highlight that simulation can increase the patient safety.
