APGA POG Incident Database - Version 2 - General Information & Event Entry PDF’s

Background: Driven by poorly controlled data in the existing database making analysis difficult and inconclusive, the POG Incident Database Sub Committee undertook a review of the entry fields. Following on from the review, the POG Incident Database Manager undertook a data cleanse of the existing data, review of the updated system in conjunction with Mipela and development of event entry PDF’s. Near Miss event entry form was updated in April 20 following review and reduction of required fields

General Information: The updated Incident Database system requires Mipela Info Connect version 5.1 and a modern browser1 . This version has more drop-down lists2 , has many more mandatory fields3 , more controlled fields and guidance information4 . It is therefore recommended to select the relevant event entry PDF’s from the attached series, print it and fill out manually before starting to enter the event5,6 details in the system.
