Reducing failures in daily medical practice: Healthcare failure mode and effect analysis combined with computer simulation [PDF]

open access: yesErgonomics, 2021
This study proposes a risk analysis approach for complex healthcare processes that combines qualitative and quantitative methods to improve patient safety. We combine Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis with Computer Simulation (HFMEA-CS), to overcome widely recognised HFMEA drawbacks regarding the reproducibility and validity of the outcomes ...

Expanding healthcare failure mode and effect analysis: A composite proactive risk analysis approach [PDF]

open access: yesReliability Engineering and System Safety, 2018
Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (HFMEA) is a systematic risk assessment method derived from high risk industries to prospectively examine complex healthcare processes. Like most methods, HFMEA has strengths and weaknesses. In this paper we provide a review of HFMEA's limitations and we introduce an expanded version of traditional HFMEA ...

Failure Mode Effect Analysis in Healthcare - Preventing An Error before any Harm is Done

open access: yesApollo Medicine, 2004
Apollo Medicine, Vol.1, September 2004 FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) is a proactive tool, technique and quality method that enables the identification and prevention of process or product failures before they occur. It is a systematic approach of addressing what could fail in the process, why it might fail, how badly it might fail, how ...

Healthcare failure mode effect analysis of a miniaturized extracorporeal bypass circuit

Perfusion (United Kingdom), 2014
Background: The introduction of new and more advanced technology in healthcare occurs with an increasing speed. Therefore, more attention is needed for safety evaluation of new devices or techniques from an end-user perspective, especially when (inter-) national perfusion safety standards are lacking. A recently

On the need for revising healthcare failure mode and effect analysis for assessing potential for patient harm in healthcare processes

Reliability Engineering and System Safety, 2016
Abstract Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis is a proactive, systematic method adapted from safety-critical industries increasingly used to assess the potential for patient harm in high-risk healthcare processes. In this paper we review and discuss this method. We point to some weaknesses and finally argue for two adjustments.
