SHOT Annual Report and Summary

The SHOT Annual Report 2020 contains bookmarks for each chapter, and links to individual chapters on the Contents pages. These enable you to easily navigate to the chapter you require.

The electronic pdf below contains the web only MHRA chapter. This does not appear in the printed version.

*Chapter 18 amendment – Since release of the 2020 Annual SHOT Report, it has been brought to our attention that the antibodies found during investigation for TRALI for case 18c.5 had been submitted incorrectly. The case, based on the available information at that time, had been categorised as TAD-C (Imputability- possible) but should be categorised as ‘Equivocal TRALI’. Please see the supplementary information on TRALI chapter 18a for further details*

2020 SHOT Recommendations Gap Analysis Tool

For the 2020 Annual SHOT Report, the SHOT Team have created a Gap Analysis Tool. This is designed to help SHOT reporting organisations to easily audit their position on SHOT Recommendations – identifying the extent to which they are already compliant, whether there are any existing gaps, and the best ways to bridge those gaps.

The template has been pre-formatted with the SHOT Recommendations. The Gap Analysis Tool includes an Action Plan, allowing organisations to record, in narrative form, comparison of current services against SHOT Recommedations, and to plan and monitor continuous improvement in patient safety.
