Résumé
This article discusses the process of Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and how it relates to performance improvement (PI) and the development of high reliability organizations. As a proactive process, PI team members can use FMEA to identify and prioritize risk before errors occur in health care environments. This tool comprises steps to assess the failure risk of a process, system, or function before the failure occurs. Performance improvement team members can use FMEA as an additional tool to guide them when working to create a culture of safe patient care and improve patient outcomes. After reviewing this article, the reader should have a better understanding of FMEA, how to implement it, and how it supports PI processes and high reliability organizations. This is the fourth article of a six-part series about performance improvement.
