ایمنی در بخش‌های مراقبت ویژه کودکان: مروری بر مطالعات انجام شده در ایران

Background & Aim: Receiving safe care, based on the knowledge of the day and based on the superiority of the patient's benefits, is one of the fundamental rights of patients in the health system of all countries, including Iran. The purpose of this article is to provide a comprehensive overview of all research on the safety of pediatrics intensive care units throughout Iran. Using the documentation, reports and articles published in this context, the authors review the safety status of the pediatrics safety in intensive care units in Iran. Materials & Methods: This study is a comprehensive overview study. In order to find relevant studies, a search was conducted through Persian language databases including Magiran, SID, and IranMedex; and also the English language databases, including Google Scholar, Medline, Scopus, Elsevier, PubMed, and ScienceDirect, using the Persian keywords "Pediatric Intensive Care Units and patient safety" without any time limitations.  Results: Of the 61 papers obtained after a thorough review, 35 articles were selected. Regarding the research goal, ten articles were directly related to safety in the PICU section and were published in English and Farsi in domestic and foreign journals, and access to full text or summary of the article was provided in this study. Conclusion: There are no accurate statistics on the safety of PICU sections in Iran. It seems that lack of awareness among nurses about safe delivery, high workload, inadequate safety culture in departments, and inappropriate policies in providing patients with safety are among the most important factors affecting children's inadequate child safety.
