  • application of failure mode and Effect Analysis in a radiology department
    Radiographics, 2011
    Co-Authors: Eavan Thornton, Olga R. Brook, Mishal Mendirattalala, Donna Hallett, Jonathan B Kruskal
    Abstract:

    Failure mode and Effect Analysis permits proactive identification of possible failures in complex processes, such as clinical radiology services, and provides a basis for continuous improvement by offering a tool for predicting failures and allowing changes to be implemented to prevent such failures.

  • Application of failure mode and Effect Analysis in a radiology department.
    Radiographics : a review publication of the Radiological Society of North America Inc, 2011
    Co-Authors: Eavan Thornton, Mishal Mendiratta-lala, Donna T Hallett, Olga R. Brook, Jonathan B Kruskal
    Abstract:

    With increasing deployment, complexity, and sophistication of equipment and related processes within the clinical imaging environment, system failures are more likely to occur. These failures may have varying Effects on the patient, ranging from no harm to devastating harm. Failure mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a tool that permits the proactive identification of possible failures in complex processes and provides a basis for continuous improvement. This overview of the basic principles and methodology of FMEA provides an explanation of how FMEA can be applied to clinical operations in a radiology department to reduce, predict, or prevent errors. The six sequential steps in the FMEA process are explained, and clinical magnetic resonance imaging services are used as an example for which FMEA is particularly applicable. A modified version of traditional FMEA called Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis, which was introduced by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs National Center for Patient Safety, is briefly reviewed. In conclusion, FMEA is an Effective and reliable method to proactively examine complex processes in the radiology department. FMEA can be used to highlight the high-risk subprocesses and allows these to be targeted to minimize the future occurrence of failures, thus improving patient safety and streamlining the efficiency of the radiology department.
