Research on Fault Risk Identification and Control of CT Simulator Based on FMEA / 中国医疗器械杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the high-risk fault risk of CT simulator and the main causes of the risk, and to put forward effective risk management strategies.@*METHODS@#The failure mode and effect analysis method was used to identify and control the operational fault risk of CT simulator.@*RESULTS@#5 major fault components, 8 fault failure models and 17 failure causes were analyzed. The top 5 failure causes are:anode target surface burn caused by direct scanning without warming up the tube (590.4), tube failure (518.2), burnout of joints caused by aging of high voltage cables (424.2), motor carbon brush wear (304.8) and belt break (296.4).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The failure mode and effect analysis method can effectively identify the risk of equipment failure, and thus specifically formulate risk management and control measures to ensure the normal operation of equipment and the safety of doctors and patients.

Application of failure mode and effect analysis in reducing hospital medical errors / 中华医院管理杂志

As the importance of clinical risks management grows hospital management,reducing hospital medical errors for patients safety has become a key quality management process.Failure Mode and effect analysis( FMEA) is a proactive technique for error detection and reduction.In this paper,based on a brief review of it's history of development,described in detail the implementation method and steps of FMEA,mainly introducing the research progress for using FMEA in reducing hospital medical errors.
