Evidence boundary. This page is a structured project extraction from the linked primary Prevention of Future Deaths source. It is not the report text. Do not infer cause, prevalence or product-wide performance beyond the source and the explicit qualification below.

Report metadata

Field Value
PFD reference 2023-0252
Registered primary source SRC-040
Report date 2023-07-18
Coroner area Norfolk
Clinical setting Hospital
Care transition Admission to ward/discharge
Primary workflow group Medication and prescribing
Primary browsing context Acute and emergency care
Predominant information boundary Hybrid paper and digital record

The workflow, browsing-context and predominant-boundary fields are retained navigation aids. They are not additional coronial findings, and a single primary value cannot express every aspect of a multi-setting or multi-mechanism report.

Care-pathway classification

This classification distinguishes where safety-relevant information or work arose, where action was expected and where the digital or information workflow failed. It is a project coding of the source, not a coronial statement. “Origin” does not mean the organisation caused the harm.

Dimension Project classification
Settings and pathway participants Secondary acute or outpatient care
Information or work-item origin Secondary acute or outpatient care
Origin care context(s) Secondary care
Expected action destination Secondary acute or outpatient care
Destination care context(s) Secondary care
Directional pathway Secondary acute or outpatient care → Secondary acute or outpatient care
Care-setting span One care setting
Sector boundary Health services only
Failure point Multiple points
Classification confidence high

Classification note: The hospital's electronic VTE assessment omitted detail present in the paper clerking tool, while responsibility for checking and acting was also displaced within the admission pathway.

Classification confidence applies only to this care-pathway coding. It is separate from extraction confidence, source authority and causal certainty.

Evidence status and qualification

Field Status
Extraction confidence high
Verification status Primary source linked; high-confidence extraction
Response evidence status Not assessed in this dataset
Registered response sources None registered for this row
Non-exclusive mechanism codes HF, ALERT, GOV, LOOP

Qualification recorded in the dataset: Treatment contribution was framed with clinical uncertainty

“Response evidence noted” means only that the row qualification refers to response/respondent evidence or records a recipient's post-report position. The linked IDs enumerate the official response attachments registered for this row; they do not imply that every response supports every part of the qualification, and they do not establish implementation. “Not assessed” makes no claim about whether a response exists.

Structured project extraction

These fields are analytical summaries, not quotations.

Project summary of the coroner's concern

Electronic VTE assessment and monitoring/checking concerns required action

Requested action

Hospital and copied national bodies to act

Digital safety characterisation

Dimension Project extraction
System or record type Electronic prescribing and paper clerking booklet
Digital function VTE assessment/prescribing
Failure mode Electronic assessment was less detailed than the paper clerking tool
Human-factors issue Electronic route appeared sufficient but omitted richer prompts
Workflow issue Checking responsibility was assumed to sit elsewhere
Information issue Reduced assessment detail

Downstream Defence trace

No canonical candidate Defence requirement currently cites this report. This does not imply that the mechanism is irrelevant; any mapping must be added and qualified in the controlled requirements register.

The included-case dataset preserves early legacy_military_relevance and legacy_derived_requirement fields for audit history. They are not published here as requirements and must not override the canonical REQ register. New report rows do not need to populate them.
