However, evidence of the type and frequency of patient safety events occurring in cancer care among patients from ethnic minority background is lacking. This study sought to address this evidence gap.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Design<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A two-stage retrospective medical record review was conducted at four cancer services in two Australian states. Eligible medical records at each service that were identified as belonging to ethnic minority patients were reviewed by two clinician researchers in stage one, followed by authentication of extracted data by a site-specific cancer clinician in stage two.

Of the 628 patient records, 212 (33.75%) documented at least one safety event. A total of 410 safety events were documented in the 212 patient records. Medication-related safety events were most commonly documented (121\/410, 29.5%), followed by clinical process\/procedure-related safety events (76\/410, 18.5%) and patient accidents (60\/410, 14.6%).
