Purpose: Between August and December 2019, the incidence of bleeding complications following arterial sheath removal after cardiac catheterization in a Medical Intensive Care Unit (MICU) reached 4.03%. Several cases resulted in massive arterial bleeding, hemorrhagic shock, and prolonged hospitalization. This study applied Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (HFMEA)to systematically examine the arterial sheath removal process, identify high-risk failure modes and their underlying causes, and implement preventive strategies to reduce bleeding complications. Methods: Using the HFMEA framework, the arterial sheath removal care process was analyzed to identify five major failure modes and their associated causes. Based on the hazard scoring results, targeted improvement strategies were developed and implemented. These included establishment of a standardized operating procedure for arterial sheath removal, development of a dedicated assessment form, implementation of structured on-the-job training programs, and creation of visual warning and reminder tools to enhance adherence to safe care practices. Results: Following implementation of the improvement strategies, the hazard scores of the five identified failure causes decreased from 12 to 3. Bleeding complications related to arterial sheath removal were completely eliminated, with the incidence reduced from 4.03% to 0%. Conclusion: Application of HFMEA effectively improved the accuracy and consistency of arterial sheath removal care and strengthened interprofessional collaboration. These patient-centered interventions significantly reduced bleeding complications and contributed to improved patient safety and quality of care following cardiac catheterization.
