摘要
Healthcare is an ever-changing environment, thus it is essential for each medical institution to be prepared to face and consequently conquer the future advancements in technology. This can be accomplished by careful selection of appropriate healthcare performance indicators to create a successful control system. In this project, Statistical Process Control (SPC) principles incorporated into the Virtual Instrumentation (VI) application, using a programming environment, LabVIEW made it possible to develop such a control system. The designed system constitutes a comprehensive control system, which accomplishes three major goals: detection, location and assignment of causes of special, uncontrolled variation within a pre-specified indicator process.
