| Abstract |
To carry out a Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) to the use of oral syringes. 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 failure was calculated using the Risk Priority Number (RPN). Preventive actions were proposed. Five failure modes were identified, all classified as high risk (RPN> 100). Seven of the eight preventive actions were implemented. The FMEA methodology was a useful tool. It has allowed to know the risks, analyse the causes that cause them, their effects on patient safety and the measures to reduce them. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 November 2017.
All research outputs
#5,363,212
of 25,610,986 outputs
Outputs from Farmacia Hospitalaria
#42
of 375 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#88,255
of 341,482 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Farmacia Hospitalaria
#1
of 4 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,610,986 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 375 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.8. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 341,482 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 74% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 4 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
