Aim of this study is to determine the number of women with benign symptomatic palpitations who receive treatment. Method: We performed a retrospective chart review of all women who were referred to our obstetric-medicine clinic for ev...

Control charts are the most important tools of statistical process control used to discriminate between assignable and common causes of variation and to improve the quality of a process. To design a control chart, three parameters including sample size, sampling interval, and control limits should be determined. The objectives are hourly expected cost, in-control average run length, power of th...

Monitoring the nutritional composition of forage can be conceptualized as a quality control process that can be accomplished using control charts such as the Shewhart X-bar chart. A sampling schedule for an X-bar chart is defined by 3 parameters: the number of samples n taken at each sampling time, the sampling interval h, and the control limits L. All 3 parameters affect the performance of the...

ABSTRACT. Goal: The main objective of this research paper is to propose a chart, named  Modified Control Chart, where the process variance () allowed be larger than in-control value until maximum (), as long remains capable, in sense that it produces specified (tolerated) small fraction non-conforming items. Design / Methodology Approach: methodology was quantitative approach with statistical...
