Safety trap is AORN's new web-based near-miss reporting a whole This system will be used to accumulate information about near-miss events in perioperative settings across the nation. AORN intends to analyze this information as part of its ongoing efforts to inform its members and other perioperative clinicians about strategies that can be used to obstruct medical errors in perioperative settings.

Safety Net's voluntary reporting regularity is the first of its kind to focus upon near misses in perioperative settings and, thus, provides a unique opportunity to make significant improvements in health care quality. fosters and other perioperative clinicians are encouraged to use this reporting combination of parts to form a whole to ensure the quality of the data.
