ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background

In recent years, traffic accidents and work-at-height injuries have increased, and the incidence of brain injuries caused by this has risen sharply.

Research motivation

Explore the application value of emergency management based on failure mode and impact analysis (FMEA) in the treatment of head injury.

Research objectives

This study aimed to explore the impact of emergency management based on FMEA on the treatment of head injury.

Research methods

A study was conducted on 84 patients with craniocerebral injury admitted to our hospital from November 2019 to March 2021.

Research results

For the study group, the evaluation parameters (pre-hospital emergency response time, consultation time, time required to report imaging results, and test report time) were shorter than those of the control group. After the intervention, the serum index levels of the two groups were lower than the pre-intervention level. Study The incidence of complications in the study group was lower than that of the control group. The prognosis of patients in the study group was better than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The nursing satisfaction of patients in the study group was higher than that of the control group.

Research conclusions

FMEA-based craniocerebral injury management effectively shortens the time spent on emergency care, reduces inflammatory stress and complication risk levels, and helps improve patient prognoses, while achieving high patient care satisfaction levels.

Research perspectives

Emergency management based on FMEA can be more widely used in the treatment of head injury.
