Resumen en inglés

The study of patient safety and adverse outcomes requires two complementary perspectives: a collective one, based on the epidemiological method and aimed at quantifying healthcare risks, and an individual one, based on qualitative methods, aimed at analyzing the causes and factors. The evaluation of the patient safety program at the vascular clinic in Bogotá, allowed us to obtain precise data on the level of compliance compared with the standards, for this, a checklist and evaluation are applied to the collaborating staff of the institution, with which we obtain relevant information to assess compliance in each component of the program. The evaluation of each component showed that the level of compliance with good patient safety practices was 80%, which is a good rating.
