Transcript of Driver Diagrams: Improvement Theory · 2016-05-02 · Purpose • To become familiar with driver...
Purpose
• To become familiar with driver diagrams.
• To recognize the input required for the development of improvement theory.
• Differentiate the driver diagram from other similar planning and improvement tools.

Why Theory? Effective change is not a “black box”.
Improvement

A simplified quality improvement
Reduce falls resulting in
harm by 50%
Risk Identification
Multifactorial risk assessment
Multifactorial interventions
Communication of fall risk status
Education of staff, patient, and family/carer
10 secondary drivers
45 change ideas and concepts

“Experience by itself teaches nothing… Without theory,
experience has no meaning.”
W. Edwards Deming(from: The New Economics)

Theory Definition
(Oxford English Dictionary)
A supposition or a system of ideas in intended to explain something…
An idea used to account for a situation or justify a course of action.
10
Two kinds of causal theory diagrams:
Fishbone:Team theories about what IS causing an effect.
Driver Diagram:Team theories about what changes WILL result in improvement.
Account forpresent situation
Justifyaction (change)

Careful with your logic…Is education a secondary driver?
Reduce falls resulting in

Improvement theory inputs
1. Evidence
2. Experience
3. Other’s improvement
4. Analysis of your current state

1. Compile inputs:• Evidence• Experience• Other’s improvement • Analysis of current situation
2. Sort, organize build primary and secondary drivers
