Classifying quality initiatives: a conceptual paradigm for literature review and policy analysis

R A Stiles et al. Hosp Health Serv Adm. 1994 Fall.

Abstract

This article presents a conceptual paradigm by which health care executives and other interested parties can classify and organize the extant literature on quality improvement in health care. The paradigm also has utility as an operational tool by which health care managers may locate conceptually their own institutional efforts at quality improvement within the realm of possible action.
