RESUMEN

Poco se ha escrito en México en relación a la génesis y prevención de los errores en medicina en comparación a otros países. Éste es un tópico mundial en el que trabajan médicos, instituciones de salud y gobiernos federales para proveer a los pacientes de un servicio seguro y de calidad. El presente trabajo revisa las definiciones del error en medicina, su clasificación, el abordaje para su estudio, diferentes propuestas para evitarlo y las opciones para su manejo.
