Abstract:
Clinical monitoring approximates the quality control standards that have been developed by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and utilizes clinical indicators to measure the relative quality of the health care given. This method can be used to compare the quality of desired care against actual day by day care. To demonstrate how it can be applied, an example of clinical monitoring performed in a U.S. hospital is presented.
