Update on IHI's 100k Lives Campaign
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In 2004 IHI's 100k lives campaign to improve patient care identified 6 changes to be put in place voluntarily by U.S. hospitals to save 100,000 lives by June 2006. Over 3,000 hospitals have taken part and IHI estimates that their goal has been surpassed. IHI seeks to continue this work in future, attracting new hospitals and strengthening compliance. The wider importance of the Campaign in crystallizing standards of care for hospitals and catalysing patient safety efforts has been recognised.
