This article addresses patient complications that are encountered by the staff in an intensive care unit in Malaysia. It addresses the need for an enhanced safety culture to address these often-preventable complications. The authors noted that there is an international drive to enhance patient safety, effectively linking this research to research already done at a number of facilities in the United States. Finding commonalities with international peers can be useful in enhancing patient safety.
