Kringos DS, Suñol R, Wagner C, et al. The influence of context on the effectiveness of hospital quality improvement strategies: a review of systematic reviews. BMC Health Serv Res. 2015;15:277. doi:10.1186/s12913-015-0906-0.
The variable success of patient safety interventions has been attributed to the context in which these strategies have been implemented.
