Description

Quality indicators are the tools to measure the patient safety, effectiveness, equity, patient-centeredness, timeliness, and efficiency as defined by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). These measures are also categorized as structure, process and outcome by Dr. Avedis Donabedian. This study was conducted to study the impact of the Central Board for Accreditation of Healthcare Institutions (CBAHI) Accreditation on the outcome measures of critical care units in a tertiary care hospital. This is a library research methodology, in which the analysis of historical records and data was done before and after the CBAHI Accreditation. It was observed during pre CBAHI Accreditation (from May 2016 to October 2016) and post CBAHI Accreditation (November 2016 to April 2017) that there was no significant improvement in the outcome measures of Critical Care Units. The Outcome Quality Measures for the Critical Care Units as per the CBAHI Standards third edition were monitored from May 2016 to October 2016 (before CBAHI Accreditation) and from November 2016 to April 2017 (after CBAHI Accreditation). The study revealed that there was no statistically significant difference between pre-test and post-test results. Although a number of rates significantly differed across units. Those rates were namely mortality rate, DAMA rate, return to the critical care unit within 48 hours of discharge/transfer rate, average length of stay, rate of initial physical assessment done by nurses with acceptable time, patient identification compliance rate and hospital acquired pressure ulcer (HAPU) rate. Hence, Null Hypothesis (Ho) is accepted and Alternative Hypothesis (H1) is rejected.
