Application of the healthcare failure mode and effects analysis system in the improvement of functional exercise effects for post-operation breast cancer patients

Abstract

Objective To improve the functional exercise effects with healthcare failure mode and effects analysis system for post-operation breast cancer patients .Methods Based on the method of healthcare failure mode and effects analysis （ HFMEA） system,the post-operation breast cancer functional exercise team was set up to determine the functional exercise process , to analyze the failure mode and the causes of potential risks, to calculate the Risk Priority Number （ RPN） and to find out the reason of failure .Results After the application of the HFMEA , the degrees of breast cancer patients＇lateral humeral joint proneness , outreach, adduction and abduction were （118.4 ±22.1） °, （39.8 ±5.6） °, （36.2 ±5.8）°and （100.2 ±14.5） °, respectively, which were significantly improved than （88.7 ±17.9） °, （34.9 ±5.4） °, （21.7 ±6.3）°and （69.8 ±23.1） °before （t=2.87,3.65,3.48,3.12, respectively;P〈0.01）.Positive assessment rate of the HFMEA was 76.19%given by the nurses.Conclusions The usage of HFMEA can improve the effects of the post-operation exercise process .
