    Abstract Abstract Background This article explores the concept of institutionalization, which is the process of transforming ideas into programs and automating actions, in the context of health system governance and sustainable development. Institutionalization is a key mechanism for creating accountable and transparent institutions, which are essential for achieving health system resilience and sustainability. This study identifies the components and dimensions of institutionalization in the health system and its relationship with good governance and sustainable health development. Main text We applied a scoping review method in five steps. First, we formulated a question for our research. Then, we concluded a comprehensive literature search in five electronic databases for identifying relevant studies. This review has two phases: identifying the concept of institutional approach and its components in health system, and its relationship with good governance to reach Sustainable Health Development (SHD). The third step was study selection, and the 1st author performed data abstraction. The key issues which are identified in our review, related to the concepts of SDH, its goals, pillars and principles; positive peace; good governance; components of institutional approach components, and their relations. Finally, we summarized and organized our findings in a format of a proposed conceptual framework, to underpin the role of institutionalization in the health system to achieve sustainable development. Conclusion Institutionalization is a key concept for achieving positive peace and good governance, which requires meaningful involvement of leaders, politicians, civil society, and public participation. It also depends on the conditions of justice, human rights, transparency, accountability and rule of law. In the wake of COVID-19, institutionalization is more crucial than ever for advancing sustainable development, especially in the context of low and middle-income countries (LMICs).

    Abstract Introduction: IEQM Model is a tool for evaluating universities that provides regular, systematic and comprehensive review of university activities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of education in the field of focus on workforce based on IEQM model in Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 150 faculty members and employees of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in 2014. Subjects were selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using Ministry of Health’s IEQM model 5-point Likert scale questionnaire whose validity and reliability were confirmed. The data were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA and independent t-test at the significance level of 0.05. Results: A total of 125 questionnaires were analyzed. The highest and lowest means scores were related to faculties of health and nursing respectively. The best and worst scores were related to the fields of working conditions (82.82±2.0) and employees’ empowerment (65.73±2.0). In general, the score of focus on workforce was 55% of the total points (85). The mean score of this field was not significantly related to education (p=0.5), gender (p=0.6) and the faculties under study (p=0.6). Conclusion: The status of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in the field of focus on workforce was at an average level. Results indicated that the working condition was almost appropriate from the perspective of faculty members but employees’ empowerment in the faculties was a priority.

This study was done to investigate the factors associated with nurses' refusal to error reporting in one of the largest teaching hospitals affiliated to Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. Method: In this cross – sectional, descriptive analytic study, a medication errors questionnaire containing 66 questions was distributed among 100 nurses in different hospital departments which were selected by stratified and simple random sampling. Descriptive statistics was used to determine the most important occurred errors and the reasons for them and one way ANOVA and independent t-test were used to determine the relationship of the causes of medication errors and refusal to error reporting with nurses' demographic factors. Data were analyzed through SPSS18 software. Results: According to the obtained findings, 87.6% of nurses were female, 85.9% were married and 47.1% were circulating nurses. “Giving medicines to the patients earlier or later than the prescribed time" was the most occurred error (48.8%). ...

    Abstract Introduction: Medication error is one of the quality problems in hospitals harming millions of people around the world every year. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence and reporting of medication errors by nurses in hospitals affiliated with Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran. Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 530 nurses selected by simple and stratified random sampling in 2014. Data were collected using a survey consisting of four sections and 66 questions, scored based on a Likert scale (87% return rate). Data analysis was performed in SPSS Version 18 using descriptive statistics, ANOVA test, and chi-square test. P-value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significance. Results: The most prevalent medication errors by nurses was early or late administration of medication (43.7%), which was attributed to individual factors by the managers in the viewpoint of the nurses (mean: 3.66+1.3). In addition, the occurrence of medication error might be due to the hospital ward patient overcrowding (4.29+1.07). No significant relationship was observed between the variables of medication error, the causes, and lack of error report with gender and nursing experience (P=0.6 and P=0.8, respectively). Conclusion: One of the effective methods for prevention of medication error is providing teaching courses for nurses to raise their knowledge in this regard and aware them of the outcomes of wrong medication prescription.
