  • With the increasing usage of quality improvement (QI) methodology, the application of QI in healthcare field is gradually gaining attention. QI in healthcare field, guided by the specific aim, is to use the methodology of continuous and cyclic interventions to transform existing knowledge into clinical practice and to measure whether the interventions are effective through monitoring of quantifiable indicators, so as to improve the medical process and outcomes. In this paper, we introduce the structures of QI projects and reporting elements, including the title and abstract, introduction, results and discussion section, and offer examples for detailed explanation, with the hope of helping medical staff to better understand QI in the field of healthcare.
