Annotated Bibliography: Topic 3 Medication Errors
Overview

Medication errors often occur in healthcare facilities where strict measures are not
applied to ensure that healthcare providers adhere to drug administration instructions. While
these cases are usually not intentional, they can have great impacts on the lives of patients and
result in severe complications. The topic of medication errors was selected due to its potential
effects on patients’ health status. As a nurse, I have experienced numerous incidents where
patients were prescribed the wrong medication or dosage. A recent case was when a six-year-old
girl was sedated with 2.0mg of midazolam intravenously every two minutes, which was the
dosage recommended for children aged twelve years and above. The right dosage for the child
was supposed to range between 0.025 to 0.05 mg/kg with continuous evaluation. The error was
identified during documentation. The child did not experience any severe complications.
