En las últimas décadas, se han reportado altas tasas de eventos adversos presentadas en procesos asistenciales, los cuales son considerados problemas de salud pública a nivel mundial. Teniendo en cuenta que involucra la seguridad del paciente, relacionadas con las condiciones clínicas, la complejidad de los procedimientos, el uso de la tecnología y generan altos costos a hospitales y clínicas anualmente durante el aumento de las estancias hospitalarias, los cuales generalmente están asociados como costos indirectos. Por lo cual, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica en diversas bases de datos, artículos científicos, trabajos de grado, entre otros, con el objetivo de analizar resultados de investigaciones desarrolladas sobre los costos de no calidad relacionados con los eventos adversos en la atención en salud y su relevancia en dichas organizaciones. De forma que se determinó que gran parte de los costos de no calidad resultan ser prevenibles, siendo superiores a US$1.000 y US$100.000 en períodos determinados. Por tal razón, es necesario desarrollar sistemas que permitan el fácil manejo, registro diario y control de los eventos adversos.

The role of the auditor plays an important role in patient safety against adverse events caused by the erroneous administration of medications, since it is in charge of searching for, determining and defining behaviors and improvement plans, verifying compliance with processes, protocols and guidelines established in health care institutions with patient safety; taking into account the most common adverse events presented during the provision of the service.

A compilation-type monograph was carried out, with the objective of documenting existing information on the role of the auditor in the identification of contributing factors for adverse events in intensive care units, stating their relevant safety barriers. That have been identified in the analysis of the consultation of articles in different databases, theses, degree works, which refer to the planned objectives. Which were of great help to identify those contributing factors that are most evident when analyzing adverse events that occurred in intensive care units. Such as work overload, inexperience, lack of maintenance in biomedical equipment, insufficient instructions, stressful environment, error in the prescription and distribution of medications. That is why the importance of the role of the auditor, who with his knowledge and experience can identify all these factors and events that are not evident with the naked eye

The audit for the improvement of quality in health is a systematic and continuous element of evaluation and improvement of the quality observed with respect to the expected quality of the care received by users; The Colombian political constitution establishes the right to health as fundamental, that is, inherent to people and mandatory. This monograph seeks to compile the available documentary information on the role of health auditing in the quality assurance system and the protection of users' rights; For this purpose, a systematic review of scientific documents was carried out in two successive phases: heuristics or search and selection and the hermeneutics known as assimilation or writing of the texts by the authors. Little documentary material was obtained in which this important topic is addressed, which makes this area a wide field for future research. For the audit against the quality assurance system and user rights to be effective, it must be considered as a valuable tool not only in terms of correction but also prevention, as more audit processes are carried out, it will decrease the probability of making mistakes, which impact both isolated institutional aspects and the life cycle of the person who accesses a health service.
