| The Trigger Tool for Measuring Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) provides an
easy-to-use method for accurately identifying adverse drug events — harm from
medications — and measuring the rate of ADEs over time. Tracking ADEs over time
is a useful way to tell if changes a team is making are improving the safety of
the medication system. Hundreds of hospitals have used the Trigger Tool to
identify ADEs, to measure the level of harm from each ADE, and to identify areas
for improvement in their organizations. The Interactive Trigger Tool makes using
this method of identifying and tracking ADEs even easier and more accurate.
