Adapted from R. Scoville, Ph.D., IHI Improvement Advisor
19th century Pragmatism played a major role in building knowledge for improvement
• Darwinian notions of variation, population, and selection infiltrated a wide range of disciplines:
• Epistemology – C.S. Pierce
• Psychology – William James, Edward Thorndike
• Sociology and education – George Mead, John Dewey
• Development – J.Baldwin, J.Piaget
• Law – Oliver Wendell Holmes
• Philosophy – B. Russell, K. Popper, L. Wittgenstein
• Some key notions
• Belief is observable only through action
• Action is inherently a ‘bet’ on its results
• Routinely successful action = ‘habit’ = ‘knowledge’

Charles S. Peirce (1839–1914) The founder of American pragmatism. He wrote on a wide range of topics, from mathematics, to logic, semiotics and psychology.
William James (1842–1910) An influential psychologist and theorist of religion, as well as philosopher and a physician. First to be widely associated with the term "pragmatism" due mainly to Charles Peirce’s difficult personality.
“As a rule we disbelieve all the facts and theories for which we have no use.”
William James
Classical Pragmatists (1850-1950)
© 2011 Institute for Healthcare Improvement
C. I. Lewis (1883-1964)Perhaps the most important American academic philosopher active in the 1930s and 1940s. He was the founder of conceptual pragmatism and made major contributions in epistemology and logic, and, to a lesser degree, ethics. Lewis was also a key figure in the rise of analytic philosophy in the US. He also had a profound impact on Walter Shewhart and subsequently Edwards Deming. His classic book, Mind and the
World Order, served as a foundation for the work of Walter Shewhart and Edwards Deming.
John Dewey (1859–1952)Prominent philosopher of education, referred to his brand of pragmatism as “instrumentalism. “

The Deming Wheel1. Design the product (with appropriate tests).2. Make it; test it in the production line and in the laboratory.3. Sell the product.4. Test the product in service, through market research. Find out
what user think about it and why the nonusers have not bought it.

The Shewhart Cycle for Learning and Improvement
Act Plan
Study Do
Act – Adopt the change, abandon it or run through the cycle again.
Plan – plan a change or test aimed at improvement.
Study – Examine the results. What did we learn? What went wrong?
Do – Carry out the change or test (preferably on a small scale).
(Deming, 1993)

In the spring of 2010 the BMJ sponsored the Vin McLoughlin Symposium on the
Epistemology of Improving Health Care. The papers that grew out of this symposium are freely available online under the BMJ journal’s unlock scheme:

Knowledge for Improvement Continues to Evolve
BMJ Quality & SafetyApril 2011 Vol. 20, No Suppl. 1
Epistemology (from Greek epistēmē), meaning "knowledge, science", and (logos), meaning "study of" is the branch of philosophy concerned with the nature and scope (limitations) of knowledge.
It addresses the questions:
• What is knowledge?
• How is knowledge acquired?
• How do we know what we know?

better for patients, better for staff
Why, when and what?
Approach What’s the problem Focus and strengths
Lean • Waste, rework,
redundancies
• Poor flow
• Multiple process steps,
• Non Value added activities
• Elimination of waste
• Improvement of flow
• Simplifying and mistake
proofing processes
Six Sigma • Poor quality and variation
• Complex and multiple
system interactions
• Minimizes variation
• Based on facts and data
• Robust sustain controls
Model for
Improvement
• Quality or flow issues
• Localized problems
• Few improvement resources
but skilled local staff and
leaders
• Aim, tests, multiple cycles,
learning
• Works in multiple
situations – including large
and small scale projects
Wow…I have actually found
organization’s that have integrated
the various approaches!

Rapid Improvement Events
• Employee involvement in developing and implementing recommendations
• Solutions will be generated via front line knowledge
• Root causes are known
• Simple tools used (fishbone, process map, Pareto)
• Data analysis, statistical tools not required
• Often involve Lean 6S & mistake proofing projects in workplace – Set, Sort, Shine, Standardize, Sustain, Safety
• Management commits to quickly making decisions on team recommendations (yes / no / further study required)
• 1-3 days of team meetings required w/ facilitator
• Less than 30 days to implement recommendations
• Little or no capital required

Lean
• Solution not known or obvious
• Typically end-to-end process issues
• Extensive data & statistical analysis not required
• Reduce obvious waste: scrap, inventory, waiting, motion, etc.
• Often involves mistake proofing, and 6S – Set, Sort, Shine, Standardize, Sustain, Safety
• Improve product flow / path
� Reduce process lead time / inventory
� Eliminate non-value added steps
� Reduce set up or change over time
� Reduce push versus pull scheduling
• Goal is to achieve “Future State Value Stream”
Operating Room Utilization
Testing Turnaround Time
44
Six Sigma
• Solution unknown
• Long standing, complex problem, existing process
• New data & statistical analysis required
• Project types: defect reduction, reduced consumption,
• Process performance/savings measurable & directly tied to project
• 3-6 months or more to project completion
Reduce Never EventsReduce Inventory
ObsolescenceReduce Billing Errors

What are our first steps?
• Assessment: problem statement, identification of root causes or flow charts and levers for improvement with drivers, prioritization of projects, scoping and resourcing using a charter
• Select/plan: defining what the focus will be – flow, defect reduction, redesign?
• Test: changes and application in real time before implementation
• Implement/control: Apply to processes locally to make part of core work and macro process standardization (ie. training, procedures)

characteristics of high performing organisations
Leadership
Measurement &
Analysis
Engaged Workforce
Strategy & Planning
Patients & community
Improved processes
Results:
• Patient Safety
• Quality care
• Healthy Community
• Economic sustainability
• Best place to work
We need to continue to build organisation capability in these six
areas to achieve sustainably superior results because our patients
and staff deserve this.

Department onto the ward after the decision to admit had been made.

The problem
It was taking too long for patients to get from the Emergency Department onto the
ward after the decision to admit had been made.
• It Impacts 35,000 patients each year
• It involves multiple specialties
• There are multiple steps in the process
• The time it takes was an average of 8 hours
• The time we wanted to do this in was less
than 1hour
