The "Rosque Protocol" Does Not Exist in Medical Literature
I cannot find any evidence of a "Rosque protocol" in the provided medical literature or in standard medical practice. This term does not appear to be a recognized medical protocol, clinical guideline, or incident investigation framework.
What You May Be Looking For
Based on the context of your question about investigating clinical incidents, you may be referring to one of these established frameworks:
Yorkshire Framework Model for Incident Investigation
The Association of Anaesthetists and Intensive Care Society recommend using the Yorkshire Framework model as a human factors and ergonomics investigative tool for critical incident investigations 1. This framework:
- Considers all possible contributory factors beyond just the actions of healthcare workers involved 1
- Examines system failures rather than focusing solely on individual blame 1
- Should be applied to both internal and external investigations following critical incidents 1
Standard Critical Incident Investigation Process
Following any fire or similar critical incident, guidelines recommend 1:
Initial Investigation Phase:
- Fire and Rescue Services conduct the first investigation 1
- Police involvement as appropriate 1
- Health and Safety Executive review (if incident meets HSE's Incident Selection Criteria) 1
- Coroner involvement in the event of death 1
Secondary Investigation Phase:
- Internal hospital investigation 1
- External investigation by responsible bodies such as the Healthcare Safety Investigation Branch 1
Investigation Principles:
- Examine all contributory causes 1
- Appraise the hospital's response 1
- Identify lessons to be learned 1
- Complete investigations in a timely fashion, being mindful that patients, families, and staff are likely affected 1
- Share lessons learned with other NHS organizations, fire safety officers, estates teams, and affected patients and staff 1
Common Pitfall
If you heard "Rosque protocol" verbally, it may have been a mispronunciation or mishearing of another term. Consider clarifying the source of this terminology with your colleagues or institution.
