What is Clinical Quality Improvement

A Qualitee 360 assisted quality improvement initiative that examines pathways of care to maximize the patient experience and effectiveness of surgical procedures. We use a multidisciplinary approach including surgeons, nurses, biostatisticians, and others who work on quality improvement projects to improve patient care before and after surgery. 

The initiative assists in improving outcomes, identifying gaps in care, increasing return on investment, reducing external pressures, improving patient safety, and reducing complications after surgery.  The program includes:

Reviewing data
Identifying outliers
Proposing interventions
Prioritizing QI initiatives
Establishing a timeline for review
Presenting results and reviewing progress
Discussing contributing factors and root causes
Identifying variables and metrics to track progress
Summarizing the findings and results of the QI initiative
Constantly monitoring data for improvement post intervention
