ABOUT MICHAEL'S WORK
Michael Cohen is a pharmacist with a passion for patient safety and a commitment to reducing preventable drug and drug delivery mistakes that kill thousands of people each year in the United States. An early pioneer in an international movement to address medication error, Cohen is founder and president of the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP), a nonprofit clearinghouse for the distribution of impartial medical safety information to the healthcare community. As the number of available drugs and prescriptions filled each year continues to soar, many with look-alike or sound-alike names, Cohen is a recognized leader in promoting increased consumer vigilance, drug industry accountability, and practitioner responsibility. Through ISMP, he has championed improvements in drug naming, labeling, packaging, delivery systems, and regulation. At the cornerstone of his efforts, Cohen co-founded the continuous, voluntary, and confidential Medication Error Reporting Program (now administered by U.S. Pharmacopoeia), for medical professionals to learn about and understand the causes of errors across the nation. Where once errors were undisclosed and viewed as embarrassing to the healthcare industry, the active collection of these reports has helped generate practical and early responses and to combat potentially widespread and dangerous outcomes. For more than three decades, Cohen has played key roles in bringing about numerous corrections in error-prone products and practices. Today, he continues to be a major force in giving national visibility to the ubiquitous and serious problem of medication errors.

关于迈克尔的工作
迈克尔-科恩是一位热衷于病人安全的药剂师,他致力于减少可预防的药物和给药错误,这些错误每年在美国造成成千上万人死亡。作为解决用药错误的国际运动的早期先锋,科恩是安全用药协会(ISMP)的创始人和主席,该协会是一个向医疗保健界发布公正的医疗安全信息的非营利性信息交流中心。由于每年可用的药物和处方的数量继续飙升,许多药物的名字看起来很相似或听起来很相似,科恩是公认的促进提高消费者警惕性、药品行业问责制和从业人员责任的领导者。通过ISMP,他倡导改进药物的命名、标签、包装、给药系统和监管。在他努力的基石上,科恩共同创立了持续的、自愿的、保密的用药错误报告计划(现在由美国药典管理),让医疗专业人员了解并理解全国范围内错误的原因。曾经,错误没有被披露,并被认为是医疗行业的尴尬,而这些报告的积极收集有助于产生实际和早期的反应,并打击潜在的广泛和危险的结果。三十多年来,科恩在促使易出错的产品和做法得到大量纠正方面发挥了关键作用。今天,他仍然是一股重要的力量,使全国范围内普遍存在的严重用药错误问题得到关注。
