ObjectivesIn the next 30 Minutes we will: Differentiate among data for accountability,

for research and for improvement Review how to effectively display Falls data

using a run chart Analyze your run chart data “by the rules” Consider strategies to share your data

effectively with others

Aspect Improvement Comparison or Accountability

Clinical Research

Aim:

Improvement of care Comparison, choice, reassurance, spur for

change

New knowledge

Methods: Test

observability Test observable No test, evaluate

current performance Test blinded

Bias

Accept consistent bias Measure and adjust to reduce bias

Design to eliminate bias

Sample size

“Just enough” data, small sequential samples

Obtain 100% of available, relevant, data

“Just in case” data

Flexibility of hypothesis

Hypothesis flexible, changes as learning

takes place

No hypothesis Fixed hypothesis

Testing strategy

Sequential tests No tests One large test

Determining if change is

improvement

Run charts or Shewhart charts

No change focus Hypothesis tests (T-tests, F-tests, Chi-square), p-value

Confidentiality

of data

Data used only by those involved in the improvement

Data available for public consumption

Research subjects’ identities protected

What Do We Need to Know? How much variation do we have? Is this process changing significantly over time? Have our changes resulted in improvement? Are we holding the

improvement?

Run Chart

• A line graph of data plotted over time• Data is kept in time order• Can see flow of data• Helps answer our improvement questions

Key Point #1

• Annotate your run chart – it tells your story• Annotation helps you see the impact of your

test of change and can help you decide to “adopt, adapt or abandon” a change.

MEDIAN

In a series of numbers, the median is physically the middle number .

It has the same number of points equal to it or above it as it has equal to it or below it.

Finding the Median: Reordering the Data504844424039393838383635353532323229272623232221

• To find the median reorder the numbers from high to low and find the number physically in the middle. If you have two numbers left in the middle, add them together and divide by two.

• Excel: place cursor in blank cell and type=MEDIAN(A2:A21) where A2 is the first cell you want to include and A21 the last)

Page 17: What is Your Data Telling You? Clara Ballantine, SIA Ontario Falls VLC Team Call January 11, 2011

Key Point # 2

• Calculate and show a Median line to see trends and a Goal line

• Analyze your data “by the rules”

Rule 2Five points all going up or all going down. If the value of two or more successive points is the same count the first one then ignore the identical points when counting; like values do not make or break a trend.

Rule 3• To Determine The Number of Runs Above and Below the Median:

– A run is a series of points in a row on one side of the median. Some points fall right on the median, which makes it hard to decide which run these points belong to.

– So, an easy way to determine the number of runs is to count the number of times the data line crosses the median and add one.

– Statistically significant change signaled by too few or too many runs.

Table is based on about a 5% risk of failing the run test for random patterns of data. Frieda S. Swed and Churchill Eisenhart, (1943). “Tables for Testing Randomness of Grouping in a Sequence of Alternatives. Annals of Mathematical Statistics. Vol. XIV, pp.66 and 87, Tables II and III

RULE 4For detecting unusually large or small numbers:

• Data that is Blatantly Obvious as a different value• Everyone studying the chart agrees that it is unusual• Remember:

– Every data set will have a high and a low - this does not mean the high or low are astronomical

What do “They” Want to Know?Senior leaders: How are we doing? How do we compare with others?Falls project team: What is the impact of our work? Where do we focus our efforts?Staff How is this helping our patients/residents/clients? What can we do?

Page 26: What is Your Data Telling You? Clara Ballantine, SIA Ontario Falls VLC Team Call January 11, 2011

Engage Senior Leaders With Data and Evidence

The "whiskers" depict the 95th% CI of the National Mean. Your mean is statisically higher if

it is above the "whiskers"; it is the same as the National Mean if it is within the "whiskers"; and it is statistically lower if it is below the "whiskers".
