Abstract
A tool of statistical process control (SPC) called a P Chart is introduced as a process-based approach for analyzing quality indicators in healthcare. The underlying methodology of a P Chart is described using card-playing examples. A discussion on the implementation of SPC in healthcare follows, along with examples using Maryland Project quality indicators.Mesh:
