Failure modes and effects analysis for ocular brachytherapy
Brachytherapy, 2017The aim of the study was to identify potential failure modes (FMs) having a high risk and to improve our current quality management (QM) program in Collaborative Ocular Melanoma Study (COMS) ocular brachytherapy by undertaking a failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) and a fault tree analysis (FTA).Process mapping and FMEA were performed for COMS ...

Radiology Failure Mode and Effect Analysis: What Is It?
Radiology, 2009Proactive prevention of medical errors is critical in medical practice. Root cause analysis (RCA) is a conventional method used to deal with errors that result in an adverse event. However, RCA has several limitations. An analytic method for health care risk management, health care failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA), has been introduced relatively

Failure Modes and Effects Analysis
2021The inductive tabular system analysis method, failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA), and its variants are the most often used system analysis method type. The chapter presents the classical definitions of the FMEA method as well as application domains on system (functional) concept, system design, and the production process level. Such distinctions

Deriving a mode logic using failure modes and effects analysis
International Journal of Critical Computer-Based Systems, 2012Modes are widely used to structure the behaviour of control systems. However, derivation and verification of a mode logic for complex systems is challenging due to a large number of modes and intricate mode transitions. In this paper, we propose an approach to deriving, formalising and verifying consistency of a mode logic for fault-tolerant control ...

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis
2014Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, popularly known as FMEA, is a technique that compels designers to think on the possible failures of equipment and their consequences for achieving total reliability. All engineers without exception do apply FMEA in the design of electronic equipment to prevent obvious design errors, and examples are provided for the ...

Failure Mode and Effect Analysis
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1977<div class="htmlview paragraph">Before-the-fact analytical tools are often helpful in designing for reliability. The methodology is not new; however, there is a need to improve the visibility and value of the tools, and the determination of when and to what level of detail to apply them.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">A ...

Cost‐oriented failure mode and effects analysis
International Journal of Quality & Reliability Management, 2008PurposeConventional Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) may lead to wrong decisions in terms of a company's financial objectives. Thus, the aim of this paper is to develop an improved approach to prioritizing failures within the procedure of the FMEA.Design/methodology/approachFirst, the current “risk priority number” (RPN) being used within the ...

Restoring the Effectiveness of Failure Modes and Effect Analysis
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1994<div class="htmlview paragraph">New Developments on the construction and the analysis of Failure Modes and Effects Analysis increase the efficiently of constructing and analyzing FMEA's. These developments also improve the focus on the priorities for achieving the maximum improvements while providing efficient utilization of resources.</div>

Failure Modes and Effects Analysis
2015This chapter extends the principles of failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) introduced in Chap. 2 with medical case examples. This chapter explores inductive reasoning or “forwards thinking” in the context of neurological diagnosis and treatment.

Failure Modes and Effects Analysis in Clinical Engineering
Journal of Clinical Engineering, 1992Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) is a proactive quality assurance procedure that has been commonly used to address potential design flaws and product misuses during the design stage of a product's life. FMEA is becoming commonplace among manufacturing companies but is relatively unknown outside of manufacturing circles.
