Healthcare failure mode and effect analysis in the chemotherapy preparation process

Journal of Oncology Pharmacy Practice, 2020
Purpose To conduct a Health Care Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (HFMEA) of the chemotherapy preparation process to identify the steps with the potential to cause errors, and to develop further strategies to improve the process and thus minimize the risk of errors.

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

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

Evaluation and critique of Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis applied in a radiotherapy case study

Human Factors and Ergonomics in Manufacturing & Service Industries, 2012
AbstractHealthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (HFMEA®) has been developed to support the proactive analysis of health care treatment processes. Its use has been reported in several studies with both positive and negative comments regarding the quality of the results and the efficacy of the method.

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.

PCA oversedation: application of Healthcare Failure Mode Effect (HFMEA) Analysis.

Nursing economic$, 2011
Hospital systems utilize many varied problem-solving processes to address system improvements and ensure patient safety. The Healthcare Failure Mode Effect Analysis (HFMEA) model is one of these tools and uses a multidisciplinary team to look at processes, diagramming the steps involved to identify potential failure points. The application of the HFMEA
