Abstract:
Adverse Drug Event(ADE)is a major factor threatening patient safety.For now,the ADE detecting in China mostly relies on spontaneous reporting,a method detecting only a small proportion of ADEs,instead of reflecting the real-world clinical medication safety.Global Trigger Tool (GTT)is a relatively new method for detecting ADEs.This paper described the GTT as an effective and practical method for detecting ADEs,by introducing the history of GTT development,GTT basic principles,operating procedures,current relevant researches and application at home and aboard and comparing with other ADE detection methods.The GTT can evaluate the clinical medication safety in various medical institutions.In particular,it can target specific clinical departments or certain people to detect ADEs for obtaining more evidences of clinical medication safety.That is the reason that we recommend medical institutions at all levels learn and use GTT.
