Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is one of the well-known techniques of quality management that is used for continuous improvement in product or process design. One important issue of FMEA is the determination of the risk priorities of failure modes. The purpose of this paper is to compare three different methods for prioritizing failure modes in a process FMEA study. These methods are t...

risk management is one of the most important phases of project management and isthe most recently used by many researchers. in this paper, a fuzzy based method wasproposed which identifies different kinds of risks through the project life cycle.then, the project risk magnitude can be obtained in regards to five factors, namely“severity”, “occurrence”, and “not detection” which form fuzzy fmea a...

Failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) is a widely used reliability analysis and risk assessment tool in various industries. It is one of the most established project management techniques to identify and eliminate failures before actual manufacturing starts. In traditional FMEA, Risk Priority Number (RPN) ranking system is used to evaluate; the risk level of failures, to rank failures, and to...

The failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a widely used analytical technique that helps to identify and reduce the risks of failure in a system, component, or process. One important issue of FMEA is the determination of the risk priorities of failure modes. Risk ranking is produced in order to prioritize the focus on each of the failure modes that are identified. In this study, we applied...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to utilize failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) to transform clinical insights into a risk mitigation plan for intrathecal (IT) drug delivery in pain management. METHODS The FMEA methodology, which has been used for quality improvement, was adapted to assess risks (i.e., failure modes) associated with IT therapy. Ten experienced pain physicians scored 37 failur...

Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is one of the well-known techniques of quality management that is used for continuous improvements in product or process designs. While applying this technique, determining the risk priority numbers, which indicate the levels of risks associated with potential problems, is of prime importance for the success of application. These numbers are generally at...

  Introduction: reduction of possibility risk in hospitals is an important and vital issue for improving the quality of health care. This research was conducted with the aim of identifying, analyzing and prioritizing risks using the failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) method, providing solutions for reducing or controlling identified risks and examining the effective basics of risk ...

In order to effectively analyze and control use-related risk of medical devices, quantitative methodologies must be applied. Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a proactive technique for error detection and risk reduction. In this article, an improved FMEA based on Fuzzy Mathematics and Grey Relational Theory is developed to better carry out user-related risk analysis for medical device...
