Application of FMEA Risk Management in Surgical Site Infection

Surgical site infection has become an important project in global hospitals control and prevention, it is one of the important contents to protect patient safety. Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) as a method of risk analysis in the design and manufacture ,it has long been familiar with the application which have been used in the prevention and avoid errors. In recent years, it is gradually used FMEA to applied the medical risk management by the international community, and it will play a pre-prevention and avoid of medical risks, so as to reduce the risks.This study introduces the FMEA and the development of medical risk management process, analysises the FMEA feasibility of the application in medical risk management,discusses the application of FMEA to the significance of medical risk management; through the analysis of FMEA risk assessment technology,in accordance with characteristics and requirements of medical risk management ,it will be get the FMEA risk management medical risk assessment methods, and built a medical model of FMEA risk management, and also through surgical site infection of practical application in risk management,can be effectively used to achieve the purpose of the prevention which applied the FMEA to medical risk management, and can be reduced the incidences of infection, and summarized the main points of the implementation of FMEA and management improvements. It's hoped that through this study FMEA ,it will be applied to the management of surgical site infection risk, to reduce the incidence of infection, to test the applicability of FMEA to domestic hospital risk management, to test whether the FMEA is effective, feasible, and replicable. Meanwhile, it's seeked to improve the ability of risk management in the hospital through promoting the application of FMEA, thereby reducing the medical risks as much as possible, as well as compensation for the resulting cost of remediation, improving the safety of patients and increasing the reliability of patients in health care activities.
