Pdf Summary

The IHI Tool QI Project Measures Worksheet is a template for documenting measures used in quality improvement projects. The worksheet allows users to define and document measures related to outcomes and processes. In terms of outcome measures, the worksheet provides space to define the measure, such as the percentage of patients with vaccine status assessed and the percentage of patients with accurate vaccination status in the electronic medical record (EMR). The worksheet also includes a data collection plan, indicating who is responsible for data collection and how often it will be collected.<br /><br />For the outcome measure of percentage of patients with vaccine status assessed, the plan is to introduce an instruction sheet to eligible staff and physicians to assess vaccination status and review patient charts weekly for documented vaccine status. For the outcome measure of percentage of patients with accurate vaccination status in the EMR, the plan is to compare the vaccination status in the EMR to the NV Web IZ system for 50 eligible patients and work with the IT department to ensure information is up to date.<br /><br />The worksheet also includes process measures, such as the percentage of eligible patients seen in the clinic on a weekly basis with their vaccine status assessed and the percentage with accurate vaccination status in the EMR. For these measures, the plan is to audit eligible patients from the data sheet provided by the IT department on a weekly basis to assess their vaccination status.<br /><br />The worksheet does not include any balancing measures, which are measures used to assess potential harm or unintended consequences of a quality improvement project.<br /><br />Overall, the IHI Tool QI Project Measures Worksheet provides a structured format for documenting and tracking quality improvement measures, ensuring clear definitions and plans for data collection.
