Modified Early Warning System: Quality Improvement with the Help of Healthcare Failure Modes and Effect Analysis.

Introduction: Hospitals struggle to implement MEWS. This study aims to improve MEWS implementation in the studied hospital.Objective: Improve the implementation of MEWS with the help of HFMEA.Materials: HFMEA together with training is used to improve the implementation.Results: The pre-intervention RPN got reduced from 1558 to 516 in the post-implementation phase.Application: This demonstrates improvement in the implementation of MEWS with the help of HFMEA, this study design can be widely used.Conclusion: The HFMEA is an effective tool to use for the improvement of MEWS implementation by the hospital nurses.
