Model for Improvement
“The definition of insanity is doing the same
thing again and again and expecting a
different result”
Albert Einstein
Scientific Method
• Analytic in nature with the focus on the
development/discovery of new knowledge
Model for Improvement
What are we trying to
accomplish?
What change can we make
that will result in improvement?
How will we know that a change
is an improvement?

Langley, et al.
This comparison/examination
generates knew knowledge
about what change might
work or what modification is
needed
PDSA Learning Cycle:
Most important part of any
PDSA cycle is the
Prediction as it represents
current knowledge about
how a process or system
will behave in the future.
Inductive learning begins
here
When predictions are
compared with actual
outcomes they can
reveal gaps in our
current understanding of
why a process or system
behaves the way it does

Final Thoughts on PDSA
• The opportunities for learning about many
aspects of the change from testing are
expected to be significant, including
learning from failures. Some percentage
of tests—perhaps 25 to 50 percent—is
expected to result in no improvement,
to “fail,” but to result in substantial
learning nevertheless.

• 3 – All pieces on Mr. P • Start: When time
& positioned correctly
keeper says go.
• 2 – All pieces on Mr.
• Stop: When
P, but one or more is
Assembly indicates
out of place
last piece is in place
AND removes hand.
• 1 – One or more
pieces are not on Mr.
