How will we know that change is an improvement?? is a core question of one of the most commonly-used models for continuous quality improvement (CQI), the process-based, data-driven approach to improving the quality of a product or service through iterative action-evaluation cycles. For health care practitioners, researchers and funders this question applies in a broader context: How can we tell whether an initiative that uses the theory and methods of CQI to improve health outcomes has worked; how, and what, do we learn from these initiatives; and how do we know whether a successful initiative will work in other organizations?
