Abstract
Root Cause Analysis (RCA) has been widely used as a structured approach to investigate patient safety incidents. RCA helps identify what, how, and why something happened, therefore preventing recurrence of incidents. Since many quality tools can be used during RCA, various formats of RCA exist. If RCAs are performed incorrectly or incompletely, they are likely to produce unusable results. To address this issue, RCA software has been developed. The use of RCA software in investigating patient safety incidents may offer several advantages, such as potential reduction in learning time, shortening of the analytic process, facilitation of collection, analysis, and presentation of data and production of meaningful RCA reports. We introduced six healthcare RCA software and compared characteristics. Results from this study will enable the RCA team to choose proper RCA software.
