“Improving Outcomes: A Failure Mode and Effects Analysis and Ishikawa Cause and Effect Diagram for an Identified Practice Problem” Title: Quality Improvement Analysis for Enhancing Safety and Efficiency in Gamma Knife Radiosurgery: A Case Study Using FMEA and Cause and Effect Analysis
The purpose of this assignment is to critically evaluate a practice problem idea you identified. This assignment builds on the Week 4 assignment. Information used in the Week 4 assignment may be used as a basis for this assignment. The goal is to develop a deeper understanding of the identified practice problem idea, using two continuous quality improvement tools, specifically, a Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and an Ishikawa (fishbone) cause and effect diagram to analyze, improve, and mitigate related risks. This assignment will allow you to apply competencies through sequential development of workflow steps in relation to an identified practice problem idea and promotion of presentation skills. Assignment content supports professional formation, communication, and dissemination skills relevant to the DNP-prepared nurse.
Instructions
This assignment has four components:
Identified practice problem idea in PICOT format
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis
Ishikawa (Fishbone) cause and effect diagram
Professional PowerPoint with speaker notes at the bottom of each slide to disseminate information
Follow these guidelines when completing each component of the assignment. Contact your course faculty if you have questions.
Consider the identified practice problem idea used in the Week 4 translation science project including PICOT, background, and significance. Incorporate course faculty feedback from the Week 4 assignment.
Review the examples of the failure mode and effects analysis and fishbone diagram in the Week 4 Explore section of the course called Evidence-Based Practice: Improving Outcomes.
