description In the healthcare field, we know patient safety incidents are unfortunate events that occur. Two groups are affected by these incidents: Patients become first victims and the professionals involved turn into second victims. All of them need adequate support. The main objective of this dissertation is to determine if forgiveness can play a significant role in the aftermath of a medical error. To achieve this goal, three studies are presented. The first study is dedicated to the experience of forgiveness of the patient or their family members, after submitting a medical complaint, related to an adverse event. By means of a telephone survey, we explored whether they received an apology, as well as whether they forgave the professionals involved. The second study explores the need for forgiveness of professionals after a patient safety incident, using a quantitative methodology. Finally, the third study is a qualitative approach to the need for forgiveness in professionals who have experienced a patient safety incident. Results indicated that forgiveness contributes to patients’ or relatives’ wellbeing, as well as that of professionals. Knowing if the patients have forgiven helps professionals in their recovery process as second victims. These findings suggest that developing interventions, where forgiveness is facilitated between first and second victims, contribute to both parties’ welfare.

Dos grupos se ven afectados por estos incidentes: los pacientes, quienes se convierten en primeras víctimas y los profesionales implicados, conocidos como segundas víctimas. Todos necesitan el apoyo adecuado. El objetivo principal de esta tesis doctoral es determinar si el perdón puede tener un rol significativo en el periodo posterior a un error médico. Para lograr este objetivo, se presentan tres estudios. El primer estudio está dedicado a la experiencia del perdón del paciente o de sus familiares después de presentar una reclamación relacionada con un evento adverso. A través de una encuesta telefónica exploramos si recibieron disculpas, así como si perdonaron a los profesionales involucrados. El segundo estudio explora la necesidad de perdón de los profesionales después de un incidente de seguridad del paciente desde un enfoque cuantitativo. Finalmente, el tercer estudio es una aproximación cualitativa a la necesidad de perdón en profesionales que vivieron un incidente de seguridad del paciente. Los resultados indicaron que el perdón contribuye al bienestar de los pacientes o familiares, así como al de los profesionales. Saber que los pacientes los han perdonado contribuye a su recuperación como segundas víctimas. Estos resultados sugieren que el desarrollo de intervenciones en las que se facilita el perdón entre la primera y la segunda víctima favorece al bienestar de ambas partes.Universitat Internacional de CatalunyaFernández-Capo, MaríaGiraldo Matamoros, PriscilaUniversitat Internacional de Catalunya.
