Nursing near miss: a concept analysis.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundNursing near misses represent critical yet underutilized indicators of patient safety. Variability in their definition and recognition hampers consistent reporting and management, underscoring the need for concept analysis to advance clarity and practice.
objectiveThis study aimed to clarify the definition, attributes, antecedents, and consequences of nursing near misses through Walker and Avant's concept analysis method.
methodThis study used Walker and Avant's eight-step concept analysis framework to systematically analyze the concept of nursing near misses. A comprehensive search was conducted in both English and Chinese databases to identify relevant studies, and the selected literature was reviewed and synthesized according to the eight-step approach.
resultsNursing near misses were characterized by four defining attributes: (1) occurrence within the nursing process; (2) an error that was committed but did not result in patient harm; (3) prevention of adverse outcomes through timely identification and intervention; and (4) reflection of underlying risks with significant value for reporting and improvement. Antecedents included individual factors, organizational factors, and environmental factors. Consequences encompassed both negative outcomes and positive outcomes. Empirical referents were proposed to support the identification and management of nursing near miss events.
conclusionsThis study contributes to a clearer understanding of the concept of nursing near misses, facilitating early recognition and prevention of low-risk nursing errors, and supporting evidence-based strategies to strengthen nursing safety and quality management.
