Objective To identify the suicide risk of inpatients and put forward preventive strategies.Methods Failure mode and effect analysis(FMEA)was used to clarify and evaluate the risk points from three aspects:before ad-mission,at admission and during hospitalization,calculate the risk coefficient,and determine the priority of improve-ment measures.Results The improvement measures were made for 14 risk points requiring intervention,and the risk coefficient decreased significantly after implementation.Conclusion The application of FMEA can reduce the risk of suicide in hospitalized patients.It is also necessary to further improve the ability to identify suicide risks,strengthen hu-manistic care,improve service quality,and ensure the safety of hospitalized patients.
