The August 9, 2007 edition of The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) has an insightful book review by John P. Burke, M.D., of LDS Hospital in Salt Lake City, UT, which does a very good job of introducing us to a valuable new book, “Medication Errors”, second edition, edited by Michael R. Cohen.
As has been reported previously, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) estimates that at least 1.5 million Americans are sickened, injured, or killed each year by medication errors.
