A healthcare failure mode and effect analysis to optimise the process of blood culture performance.

The Netherlands journal of medicine, 2020
Blood cultures are essential diagnostic tools to identify pathogens in systemic infections. However, logistics of blood culture performance is often suboptimal. This study analyses the pre-analytic phase of blood culture processing through different types of risk assessments.We performed direct observations to gain in-depth knowledge of the root causes

Designing a Safer Process to Prevent Retained Surgical Sponges: A Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis

AORN Journal, 2011
AbstractA retained surgical sponge is a sentinel event that can result in serious negative outcomes for the patient. Current standards rely on manual counting, the accuracy of which may be suspect, yet little is known about why counting fails to prevent retained sponges. The objectives of this project were to describe perioperative processes to prevent

Identifying Organizational Failures in Emergency General Surgical Admissions in the United Kingdom: A Healthcare Failure Mode Effect Analysis

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 2014
METHODS: Using publicly reported 2009-2011 data from Hospital Compare, we identified all 144 outlier hospitals with statistically better or worse FTR performance than the national average. Among these, we performed 7 case studies at hospitals that were purposively sampled such that they varied in size, teaching status, and patient population.
