OBJECTIVE To carry out a Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) to the use of oral syringes. METHODS A multidisciplinary team was assembled within the Safety Committee.  The stages of oral administration process of liquid  medication were analysed, identifying the most critical and establishing the  potential modes of failure that can cause errors. The impact associated with  each mode of f...

fault tree analysis (fta) as a probabilistic risk assessment (pra) method is used to identify basic causes leading to an undesired event, to represent logical relation of these basic causes in leading to the event, and finally to calculate the probability of occurrence of this event. to conduct a quantitative fta, one needs a fault tree along with failure data of the basic events (bes). someti...

Abstract Practical uses of Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) range from the identification of potential design defects and safety hazards, to maintenance planning, diagnostics and Prognostics and Health Management (PHM). According to the broadly accepted standard for FMEA, MIL-STD-1629A, a successful FMEA is one that conducted in a timely manner, so that the results can be used to ident...

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is one of the risk analysis techniques often used in many industries to recognize, assess, avoid potential failures. FMEA consists occurrence (O), severity (S) detectability (D) failures by multiplying these components, priority number (RPN) obtained. The RPN value an indicator prioritizing Although analytical technique with strengths, such as helping id...

PURPOSE A failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) of skin lesions treatment process using Esteya™ device (Elekta Brachyterapy, Veenendaal, The Netherlands) was performed, with the aim of increasing the quality of the treatment and reducing the likelihood of unwanted events. METHODS A multidisciplinary team with experience in the treatment process met to establish the process map, which outlin...

Many industries struggle with different project failures including Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementations projects which has high failure rates too. Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) is an extensively utilized to analyze modes in risk assessment various industry ERP implementation projects. Nevertheless, the traditional FMEA system, ignoring Interdependencies among as well relativ...

Fault tree analysis (FTA) is a widely used method for analyzing a system’s failure logic and calculating overall reliability. However, application of conventional FTA has some shortcomings, e.g. in handling the uncertainties, allowing the use of linguistic variables, and integrating human error in failure logic model. Hence, Fuzzy set theory has been proposed to overcome the limitation of conve...

Perindustrian yang serba maju seperti sekarang menuntut seluruh perusahaan peka terhadap kualitas produknya. PT. Ravana Jaya merupakan industry manufaktur memproduksi kerangka bangunan. Produk dari tersebut perlu adanya identifikasi menggunakan metode FMEA dan FTA dikarenakan kecacatan pada produk bangunan diantaranya tidak sesuai ukuran, hasil las rapi, cat besi mengelupas. bertujuan untuk men...
