AbstractDeaths in hospital represent a vital learning opportunity for both individual clinicians and the wider healthcare system. Many deaths are reviewed and discussed in morbidity and mortality meetings, with the Royal College of Physicians promoting Structured Judgement Review (SJR) methodology to support this discussion. An analysis of 1 year of SJRs in one hospital was undertaken, generating a toolkit to support junior doctors in evaluating in-hospital deaths. Here, the opportunities and limitations of this analysis are discussed, with consideration of ways to improve the uptake of SJR across the hospital team. These reviews exemplify one way of maximising learning from in-hospital deaths.© Royal College of Physicians 2023. All rights reserved.
