1 How will you know How Will You Know That a Change Is An Improvement? Robert Lloyd, PhD John Boulton, MD Day 2 Concurrent Breakout Session 15 September If the change(s) you have made signal a true improvement? If you have sustained improvement? 2. If it is the right time to implement the change(s) 3. If it is time to spread the change(s) to other areas? 4. If it is time to stop measuring? 1
2 How will we know that a 4 An Option: Use Common Sense? change is an improvement? There are many hazards to the use of common sense. Common sense cannot be measured. You have to be able to define and measure what is significant. Without statistical methods you don t know what the numbers means. Source: Dr. W. E. Deming as quoted by N. Mann, The Keys to Excellence: The Story of the Deming Philosophy. Mercury Books, London, England, 1989: By understanding the variation that lives within your data 2. By making good management decisions about this variation (i.e., don t overreact to a special cause and don t think that random movement of your data up and down is a signal of improvement). 2

7 Common Cause Variation Is inherent in the design of the process Is due to regular, natural or ordinary causes Affects all the outcomes of a process Types of Variation Results in a stable process that is predictable Also known as random or unassignable variation Special Cause Variation Is due to irregular or unnatural causes that are not inherent in the design of the process Affect some, but not necessarily all aspects of the process Results in an unstable process that is not predictable Also known as non-random or assignable variation 13 How will you know 1.

12 How will you know 1. If the change(s) you have made signal a true improvement? 2. If you have sustained improvement? 3. If it is the right time to implement the change(s) Spreading a Change First identify a shift or a trend in the data. Then look to see if 6 or more data point have stayed at the new level. This indicates that you are holding the gains. A downward shift in the data (6 data points below the median) 6 more data points staying at the new level of performance 4.

If it is time to spread the change(s) to other areas? 5. If it is time to stop measuring? SPSP Two Simple Rules for Measuring Outcome Measures always! Process Measures it depends! 13
14 How often do you need to measure? It is not uncommon for a team to want to stop collecting data, especially after they have been at it for a year or two! The reliability of the process and your need to know how the process is functioning should drive the frequency of data collection and analysis. A Simple Rule for Outcomes Outcome Measures Always! As long as you are concerned about the quality and safety of the care that you deliver, you should continue to track the outcomes! For example, how long should these outcomes be measured? When do you stop measuring your financial results? When should a diabetic patient stop tracking his or her blood glucose? How long should we monitor the vital signs of an ICU patient? When should airport security stop assessing passengers for weapons? How long does a local water authority need to measure the quality of the water going through its pipes? When should schools stop measuring the progress of students? 14
15 A Simple Rule for Processes Process Measures it depends! Process measures usually demonstrate improvement before outcome measures. Process measures may be revised during an improvement project; new data will then need to be collected and tracked. A process measure should demonstrate improvement (against the run chart rules) and then STAY at the new level of performance for at least 3 reporting periods to be considered sustained. Frequency of Process Measures Regularly (daily, weekly or monthly) Done to improve a specific measure (reduce variation or shift the centerline of process performance) Periodically (once every 2-3 months) Done when statistical improvement has been noted, sustained AND the process is highly reliable (audit approach can be used here) Once or twice a year (why bother?) Stop measuring! Done when performance is so reliable, stable and capable that it is time to move on to measure something new. 15

17 Attributes of a Person Who Understands Variation They understand the different ways in which variation is viewed (static versus dynamic). They explain changes in terms of common causes and special causes. They use graphical methods to plot data over time, learn from data and expect others to consider variation in their decisions and actions. They understand the concept of stable and unstable processes and the potential losses due to tampering. They understand the capability of a process or system before changes are attempted. Theory and Prediction The Sequence of Improvement requires Measurement Test under a variety of conditions Developing a change Testing a change Make part of routine operations Implementing a change Sustaining improvements and Spreading changes to other locations 34 17
18 35 In short, statistical thinking is a way to approach all aspects of work. It is a way of thinking about numbers and how they can be used to make improvements. Statistical thinking is the primary way to know if a change has led to improvement! Statistical Thinking is a Way of Life! 18
